reliable for the reason given below and I should like
to see us be able to hold the car by the foot on a 1 in 5
gradient.

P.N. I was pleased to hear that PN.{Mr Northey} had some 4-wheel
brakes but I have not heard where he is on his journey here.
I hope to hear he is getting along alright very soon now.
After a severe mistral the weather is getting better.
