| X1775 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} 2/KT. June 24th 1933. W. Burt Esq., 21, Cheyne Place, London, S.W.3. Dear Burt, Thank you very much for your letter of the 22nd. June. In view of the fact that the practice takes place so early I do not think I shall be able to get over for it. However I shall probably go over to the I.O.M. on either the 12th or the 14th, but shall only be able to see one of the races. I know very little about the T.T. but should naturally like to see your car perform, if you will let me know on which day it is running. With regard to a room, it is very kind of you to offer to obtain accommodation for me at the Castle Mona Hotel, but since my movements are somewhat uncertain, and I shall probably go over on the midnight service, it will be best for me to get fixed up as necessary when I get there. It is unfortunate that we are so busy that I cannot enjoy these races thoroughly. Yours sincerely, | ||
