Was he Irish? Mo chuisle means “my love”, the direct translation is “my pulse”.

I think they are all very clear? The first one says 'All my love, mo chridhe, from your loving fiancé'.

Mo chridhe is a Gaelic phrase for 'my heart' or 'my darling'.

The second card says Elephant bath, Ceylon, March '56.

The third says 'Dunno about riding a hoss, but ah shure can ride a heffa-lump'

I think mo chridh means my darling.

Elephant's something, Ceylon 56. Can't work out the something.

It's Gaelic for 'my dear" or 'darling'
