Attention of Mr. Skinner.

Dear Skinner,

Thank you for your letter of October 30th. I was very sorry to hear that you were away ill, and hope that you have now completely recovered.

Unfortunately I have to be away the rest of this week, but would very much like to come over to Birmingham next Wednesday, 13th November, if this is convenient.

As I have pointed out, I am particularly interested in your petrol injection equipment and, at the same time, in any comparative consumption tests you may have between S.U. and fixed choke carburetters, such as Stromberg or Zenith.

Yours sincerely,
