Postcard, published by ‘The Quantock Series Bridgwater’, postmarked 1 April 1924, sent to Mr A Creedy of 19 Fawcett Road, Croyden, Surry. The message reads: ‘Dear Dad. Thanks for Mackintosh received yesterday. I expect you have heard aunt and uncle are coming later than expected so mum said you had better get a small leg of lamb for Sunday as it is Bank Holiday on Monday and you will not be able to get anything. Mother has a sick headache today. Love to Les. Ethel.
