My dearest Maz,

This is just a wee ‘interim’ note to tell you how delighted I was on Tuesday to receive the good news about the flat and to hear your other topics of interest.  Yes I am very relieved indeed to know that something has been fixed and I can’t thank you enough for all the trouble you have taken – you did exactly the right thing.  All being well Eileen will have viewed the premises today and I’m longing to hear what she says about it.  Your description was excellent – if it’s only half as good as that it will be first class.

Sorry this is so short but it is written in some haste – All my news on Sunday.  Much love, Maz dear, here’s to the 25^th – only another 12 days –

            Yours as ever

very affectionately

                        Peter
