Dear Lindy & Alf,
The weather is really first class. We are sunbathing all day and having a glorious time. I do wish you were both here for we are a jolly crowd, and I have seen my David and made passionate love. I hope you are both well,
my love to you,
Margaret

Oh, how we have changed! In 1900 it was considered terribly common to put more than the weather and your name on a post card where the postman and anyone else could read it. Now fifty years later Margaret has no problem joking about making passionate love to David. Goodness knows what Margaret would write in 2016.
