Moor Hall, Thorley 17/7/08 Dear Nobby, Just a word or two trusting that they will find you quite well as it leaves all of us. We have had a nice month in June but this month is a wet one we do get a lot of rain. Just fancy old Grantop letting Jim and I go to camp for a week on the 26th of July. We are going down to Worthing so it wont be bad will it. Maude wishes to be remembered to you and I am glad to say she is mainly well and the boy is as well as any kid can be. Just fancy he will be six months old when you get this. Your loving brother Bill
