"Dear Mother,
How are tu and the family – happy I hope as tu dicho in your letter there is a gross misunderstanding on A Williams part in thinking I could possibly give even in a gift my last few precious paintings I was under the impression that he was contemplating arranging a small exhibition in his new club. I will write to him and re-enlighten him. I am so happy tu had such a nice time with my father and thank tu for his address, but it seems rather impossible to collect anything substantial in the way of stamps to send just yet, but I will write. I have spent the last 2 weeks composing a letter for [unclear] at the college. He should have it now and I hope he replys [sic]. I'm still a bit sad that tu think I’ve made a mess of my future, but out of it all I have something to really compensate – my amor for Astrid which knows no boundaries and her amor for me. I'm quite certain I will start teaching in September and hope to know for definite where in the siguiente 2 o 3 months. I have enclosed some money but cant send much as I'm paying off the bank £8 plus £12 to college which I borrowed about 3 years hace and forgot about + guitarra and amplifier.
I'm sorry tu didn’t like the foto (I didn't actually but its very difficult to make double portraits) but never mind. Will write again soon, amor from myself and Astrid to all at home. Your son Stuart xxxx"
