Dear Mr. Blatchley, Thank you very much for allowing me to keep the MIRA reports dealing with aerodynamics and body-shape for a further few weeks. They contain a great deal of useful and interesting information which I would like to consider thoroughly and discuss with my fluids lecturer, Mr. Weilikorski. Having left Rolls-Royce I returned to a somewhat intensive period of college exams here in London, followed by my Easter Vacation; which up to now has been spent working in a local garage to help stretch my grant money over the next term! To cut a long story short, not very much time was spent on preparation for my project, and a few more weeks of grace will be very useful. I assure you that I will take the very greatest care of your property, and I will return it to you as soon as possible. Thanking you once again. I remain, Yours faithfully, J.{Mr Johnson W.M.} Thwaites | ||
