I think that as soon as you have delivered the Ripplet you should arrange to come to Derby and see what we are doing. It will also give you an opportunity of having a good night's sleep. Please let me know if you can conveniently arrange to come. If you have any difficulty with petrol, I could probably get Mr. Mappin to pick you up. Yours sincerely, | ||
