Here is another PC written in French both front & back - if anyone would like to translate I would be very grateful.

Thanks

My dear parents, I have received Maman’s ketter which gave me immense pleasure as well as the few lines from Papa. The photo here is a small part of the large [?area] where one plays tennis in the summer. I leave you embracing you very very strongly.

Thanks everso much Josey - it really is adding to these postcards to have the translations - it seems you can't escape from me  ;D

I know - I've been scouring it too but I am sure that's what it says  ???

ADDED: It is 'I put them in the pictures...' and I wonder if it is  not 'kisses' but can't make out the word. Someone else may be able to. What is after 'transportés' & before closing bracket?

I've blown it up & I think you are right - 4 attempted 'xxxx' which have run a bit....well done!
