A letter to Delia from her Mum
London SW11
June 26th 1944
My dearest Delia
Thank you so much dear, for your very welcome letter. I was so relieved to hear that you are all ok. A warden told me that you were getting the planes very bad at Petersfield from Portsmouth, so you can guess how worried we were. You must forgive my writing to you like that Delia, but my nerves for the past week have been all on edge.
We had a pretty quiet day yesterday and only 3 came over during the night, but they have made up for it during the morning and afternoon today. One fell very near the Granada again today. It was an awful crack. Bunty's ceiling started to come down with the vibration, so it might as well all come down now, then they can make a new room of it. Poor Mr Tickle, he thought our street was in a mess with windows and ceilings last week, but yesterday morning early one dropped at Brixton, and wiped out 24 of his houses - not one fit to live in. I feel so sorry for him, but still this is enough of the Bugs at the moment....
.... I've started you a pair of socks with the new wool you left here. They will do to wear in the fields. How are....
