Transcript of letter

Telephone No. 58,

Upper Gungate, Tamworth

Friday  (envelope postmarked 15th September 1939)

Dear Mum and Dad,

Thank you very much for letter which I received this morning.  We are going to start school on Monday next. 

We had the list of our new books this morning and I shall need a lot of books from home such as: an Atlas.  Shall I buy any books from Symonds? as he said that I could have some of his.  I might need my bathing costume as we are going to the baths on some of the afternoons.  We went to the pictures on Wed. night.

I am just going to write to Grandpa and Grandma Johns.

Love from George
