Tolkien writes to wish Michael a happy birthday for tomorrow. He is busy with work but offers his prayers and love to his son. He also mentions the arrival of a grandchild, who he hopes to see soon.
He gives details of the road situation which gets worse and while Edith has been better lately, she is starting to suffer for a lack of sleep.
Christopher had been ill, but is recovering more quickly than he feared.
He must return to preparation on his lectures.
