Why or why not?

Grandmother : The what?
Penny : The Y. H. A., Mum. The Youth Hostel's Association.
Grandmother : What else does he say?
Penny : "I'll write a letter soon. I hope you are all well."
Grandmother : What? Speak up, Penny. I'm afraid I can't hear you.
Penny : He says he'll write a letter soon. He hopes we are all well. "Love, Jimmy."
Grandmother : Is that all? He doesn't say very much, does he?
Penny : He can't write very much on a card, Mum.
