To Br.{T. E. Bellringer - Repair Manager} From PN.{Mr Northey} PN.{Mr Northey}1/MJ.16.5.30. I have wired you today as follows :- 23-EX. PLEASE ARRANGE TO BE AT CHATEAUROUX TUESDAY EVENING.PN.{Mr Northey} It would appear that 23-EX will be ready for you to take on your test on Tuesday, but in order to avoid wasting your time it would be perhaps best for you to arrive at Chateauroux on Tuesday evening in order to be available first thing the following morning. You had better run the car,say, 500 miles in France, then bring it straight over and deliver it to me in London. You can chose any route for your operations which you desire.
