  1 Sept 1960

  Dear Linus and Anita,

  You will see from this that I went again to the hair cutter and am now really shorn!

  I don’t know what I’ll do when I need to add a wee bit of curl again for its difficult to get operators here who give you only a slight curl. I am sorry not to see all of you but perhaps it is better to have fewer visitors.

  My love and greetings to Marg and Joe,

  A.H.P
