Dear Dot
How are you getting on these times?  I saw Eric B. yesterday while on Medical Parade, he looked fairly well, but of course he didn’t see me amongst the crowd, – Hope your eyes are getting better – mine is getting stronger, will be all right soon.
Kind regards Yours sincerely J.B.G.

The station cook, Ernie Rouse, bought her the album and she collected postcards and photos from about 1910, including the First World War. The identity of the writer JBG is unknown. Eric B is probably Eric Beamish.
