Dear Granny,
You'll never guess what's happening! I switched on the computer this morning and went to OFPEC and they are having
a competition for Christmas! With prizes and everything although they haven't said what the prizes are but I bet they'll be really good because Sui and macguba and Artak and all that lot wouldn't offer complete rubbish I mean as long as they could get something decent but they don't have any money so I don't know what it could be. They haven't said what kind of competition its going to be but I bet it'll be really good. I'm definitely going to enter.
Mummy and Daddy send their love and Jim says please can he not have gloves for Christmas this year? I don't care what I get as long as Uncle Kegetys makes it snow and Daddy lets me keep that burnt out Shilka in the garden.
Yesterday I had baked beans for tea and scored a try at rugby. It was only a practice match though.
Your loving grandson,
David xx
PS - Sorry to hear about the tortoise. Was it really just treacle?
