Summary
[edit]DescriptionPostcard from Margaret Ripley to her sister, sent 24 January 1915 (6251239948).jpg |
Sent by a nurse, Margaret Ripley, to her sister back in England. As far as I can tell (corrections and additions welcome) this reads: "St Winoc Rue de College Bergues Many thanks for letter olso one just sent on from B[ordeaux]. Have not yet received parcel but hope to some day. We are settling down alright but the poor patients have no comfort and it is an awful hole for them - our rooms are rather dark & uncomfotable & the stove won't heat. We have not had any snow here 'tho it has been very cold. It is dull having no where to go and no where to walk as we cannot get out of the town& the few cobble streets are uninteresting. Love to all. Mar"
Clearly she is not to impressed by Bergues, though it looks like quite a nice place today!
