I wish I could afford the fare home- Just off Home! Only half fare to pay, and next trip will be a free one- But I'm not paid for holidays- 7 day's leave with pay, bonus, and ration allowance- And living expenses are so high- With no living expenses I've saved a decent bit to draw on.- And the Doctor's bill must be paid, though he did say I needed a change- I'm too fit to trouble the Doctor but if I do fall sick I get the best medical treatment free And I really must get some new clothes.- This new issue of clothing is O.K. I bet civilian clothes cost a tidy bit now. Well, I can't go - and that ends it. Well, I'm off - Cheerio! How shall I hate starting again next week! Back next week for the Regimental Sports.
