To wish you a happy Xmas & New Year.  This card leaves out the wing of the Vicarage with the porch but is otherwise a good view of the Church Vicarage. RS.

Had a very enjoyable ride this morning. Hope you are going strong R.P.

Dear Bess. Many thanks for your letter this morning. I quite meant to send this from Redhill but weather being so grand and I made most of it. I know you hear all the news from Al. Glad to hear you are well and also to hear A&L are better but all sorry to hear about Uncle, it does seem a shame. It has been grand here today so hope he was able to have a little trot. Shall we be seeing you next month? Mum will write to you end of the week as no fresh news since Monday. Fondest love from all to all. Yrs affec. Luce.

Dear E, Thanks much for letter. I haven't had time to answer it before. We shall be very pleaesd to come on Sunday and it will suit us alright. The last Sunday we went to the Cathedral. Will it be better for us to take tickets to Ladywell? How do the trains run, do you know from there. Lots of love, R.
