Counting your luck
The stamp from this card has unfortunately been removed, so obliterating both postmark and date. A little detective work places it during World War I. The message mentions Davington Station (Faversham, Kent) which closed at the end of that war, and "Ern's 6 days' leave".
Why Gert, the writer of the card, would send this particular one to her friend Elsie to arrange a meeting, I really don't know. It may have had a hidden meaning for them, who knows?
