Dear Father
Just a few lines to let you know we are so far settled.
I met my friend down here & we are now sitting on the sea-front.
We have not got to do anything until tomorrow morning so the best thing to do is to keep out of the way we know a thing or two now.
Will write more later
With much love
Your devoted
Son
