Josie
Although I roughly know where you are I am sending this mail to Amy as she will know where her sister is
it is unlikely that you are aware of the election result as you lie in Cora’s arms
It was a landslide as I expected and the Lib Dems did well which indicates protest votes in the mix
The new party did very well as what this country really wants is a strong Centre-Right government
This leads to me to the fun and games in France
The NR if successful will cause a seismic change in the country that you and I love so much
It has already happened in Italy but I sense that the NR will be more radical as France is a country on the edge and we all know why that is happening
Watch this Space Sis
I am so so glad that you are recovering – I can see from your letters that the old Josie is coming back – Cora is so good for you as she is a wise girl unlike some of your other passions
She is good for you and you are good for her
As you can see I have been writing some splendid poetry of late – my pen is very busy
Mummy is missing you
Richmond is missing you
I am missing you
Do not hurry back as travelling is the way out of the abyss as you know
Give Cora a kiss from me
