Dear Ann

? hope you are having as much sun as we are here. It's almost too hot to breathe. I've written to BWH about his car and await a reply. Possibly he has blown up.

How did the m/a on the Special oiler go. Have we yet crimped metal corner on cyls at the lip of the c'case.
E's centre law .030 non return .140 against .090.

Re spur drives could you get hold of Cotton discs the right size instead of the Cotton duck with 4 1/2" holes which we could fill with bakelite to stop the cork being smashed.
I think the leather on 1BW is too high as even on a half throttle unbroken
