There's one other chap staying in the pub. Talks and dresses
like a War profiteer. Seems to be doing nothing but loafing
about at present.
Yours ever, ALEC.
_Postcard_.
Have ordered the mayflies and will send them soon as poss. G.
N.
DEAR GARRY,--Thanks for yours. Not so anxious about mayflies
now, but should be glad if you would send me a pound or two of
the best chocolates. Having good sport.
In haste for post,
Yours, ALEC.
DEAR ALEC,--I enclose a couple of pounds of extra special
chocolates, but didn't know they were included in the Angler's
Pharmacopoeia.
Glad you are having good sport and justifying my choice of
water.
Yours as usual, GARRY.
DEAR GARRY,--Thanks for chocs. The Vicar called the other day,
and I have caught several cups of tea on the recoil at the
Vicarage since. Miss Stevenson, his ewe-lamb, is A1, and
we have had some splendid sport together. We caught eleven
beauties yesterday; one was over 19-1/2 inches.
Post just going out.
Yours in haste, ALEC.
P.S.--Another couple of pounds of chocs would be useful.
DEAR ALEC,---Awfully glad to hear the fishing is so good. I
shall expect a brace of good long trout for breakfast one of
these days.
