| To Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} from Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /TFF. Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /TFF.6/LH. {Mr Haworth} 6.10.41. PETROL SUPPLIES. There is no objection to Fisher and Robinson sharing a petrol ration, but would prefer it shared by the two cars, thus assuring an alternative means of transport. I would like to point out that the first 'bus to town does not leave in time to enable us to get to Belper on time. Apart from my personal feelings I feel it is my duty to be on the job at starting time. Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /TFF. | ||
