"Nanou of my heart, hello to you, toothless with love. Like that you lose your paving stones, what do you want at "your age" it's the only thing you can lose (sic) because your virtue is too far gone (resic) although after 7 years of abstinence you have become almost a virgin again! This evening your letter n°6 with the little article from Libé. I prefer to smile. Yes, about Mury - her letters are disjointed. It seems like they are made much more to get rid than anything else. But nothing is certain, because we are not in her head. I am not writing to her anymore for the moment. What do you want my angel I cannot accept that she took advantage of us being locked up to lie to you. I accept everything except the lie ... especially since we give her everything. I don't like buggery, even if it's a kid who does it to me. I prefer to tell you that as for her watch she will wait. For her ice creams you will have to tell her that if she waits for your money she risks sucking the stick. Oh Sabrina is surely not better. I think we are too good. Because we want to compensate for our non-presence with gifts. But what do you want, we love our children and that is a certainty . Today I am in good shape despite my high blood pressure. No my angel, my isolation regime is absolutely not responsible for it. Because I am not a man to worry. Moreover, I have never been so calm. Yes, I have found my second wind (sic). Nanou d'amour you may not get any Easter cards from me because the one I have is awful, moreover this holiday is stupid (sic) Sweet kisses from your Z'homme. TE QUIERO. Your Bibi. »
