Derby........Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Showrooms Sr/DnlB/MLG.3.I.39 On my return to Paris I fell into the French New Year's festivities which will explain why I have not communicated before with you. I telephoned to the Works this morning when I got into touch with "By" and explained to him that the Embiricos' car would not be back in Paris until Thursday night and that we would tackle the job immediately. I therefore suggested that your man might come along on Monday or Tuesday of next week. "S" h | ||
