He writes to his half-brother Malcolm,
Went with Xui and Co. for treatment at the Dead Sea. Cured the frost pad and reduced the bruising from when the Dutch Fire Brigade pulled my arm out of the wall.
Unfortunately, the Dead Sea Salt made my eyes sore and I have to have drops in now.
This is the way I see the view from the hotel window in Jerusalem.
