Dear Prof. Schaeffer,

Thank you for your letter of 24th January confirming that others, which I have not yet received, have been sent through your Foreign office.

If the consular bag for Cyprus comes via Malta or by surface route it may be some time before they reach me. It is possible your letter of 25th December was lost here in one of the terrorist attacks on post offices.

I hope that things will be quieter when the time comes round for your next Enkomi campaign.
