"Vacabed" is the affectionate name Edmund uses when writing to his family - he is writing to Vera, Arthur, Cuthbert, Avice, Bernard, Enid and Dorothy (he doesn't include the foreign brothers).Bernard is proposing a fictional pageant; Cuthbert finishes his account of his walking holiday in the Lake District; Neville's ship arrives in England and planning continues for the upcoming bicycling tour, which will be in a podcast episode soon.The family are still discussing how many heats are needed to reduce 15 runners down to a final of only 3; there is also discussion on bicycles, cricket, tennis and football.You can contact Frances by email – [email protected] or on Twitter - @CoxLettersIntro - 00:00Bernard's letter, 2 June 1907 - 1:46Notes on Bernard's letter - 8:22Cuthbert's letter, 9 June - 12:04Arthur's letter, 9 June - 21:43Vera's letter, 23 June - 32:30Wilfred's letter, 10 June (British Columbia) - 40:09Edmund's letter, 6 July - 44:46
