Chichester.
To Mr Hives & Mr Rowledge.
I was so sorry that your send off was so tame but thought you should have a good meal & not just afternoon tea.
Tell Mr Macdonald the engine seemed to run excellently & the plane went off fine.
Most of the AV Roe people are from Manchester & Mr. Roe is of Derby so they asked if they could see the works while passing & if they have time will call.
I expect to see Mr. Roe next Sunday so we shall have a talk
