6) Law - 18th October 1970 49a Parkfield Grove, Wolverhampton W.V.2 -
2 D.G. ~ Dear Simon, I was delighted to have your letter & to know you had
all had such a good holiday & enjoyed it so much, it is a change from a
seaside one. I have never had a canal holiday, we were a large family, 5
children, so you can imagine my parents, would be glad to turn us all on the
beach, if only to keep us out of mischief, which we were all very capable of
being. There was my sister, then me, then my brother, another sister & then
last of all my young brother, he was 11 years younger than my youngest
sister so you can guess my parents had their hands full - still I don't
think we were so bad as we grew older we all seemed to enjoy together.
Father used to travel on the continent for business & at times he took
mother, or my sister & I, or my older brother, you see what you have to look
forward to. The enclosed stamp is quite a new one & one I have not seen
before so I wondered whether you had, so - I thought I know what I will do
with it - of course I am hoping it is also new to you. Miss Jones
sends her regards to you, at the present she is busy doing a bit of painting
- eh? dear? the things we have to do these days. I hope you are enjoying
school. Did you enjoy your holiday in the country, it must have been good,
with best wishes H. Spallord? Stafford? letters being written to your
Mother & Father.

19/6/74 Dear Simon, This shows where I was this morning. I climbed up
the steep road from St. Goar, on the river side below the castle! The castle
is a great warren of a place, a village in itself. St. Goar is small, but
there is much to watch on the river. The volume and variety of traffic on
the Rhine is fascinating. Yesterday we went to Wiesbaden and Maine and I had
enough of big cities. Tomorrow most are going to Frankfurt to see Scotland
play Yugoslavia; I hope to take a trip on the river. Hope all is well with
you and that you are enjoying the end of term. Best wishes M.
