My dear Father,
I got across all right last night, though I had
some hours at Folkestone to put in before they thought of starting. I am going back to the old crowd, but they do not appear to be where I expected and I am starting off at 6.30 a. m to-morrow on my travels to find them. They kept me back a day here to get fitted with a gas helmet or I should have gone up this morning. The crossing was very steady & had I not broken a bottle of hair oil, which saturated everything in my saddle bag, there would have been no incident worth recording. It is very wet to- day.
Love to all
Jack.
