| S/W Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X7770 C4/C25.4.29 Confirming our conversation on the telephone this afternoon, Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}, PN.{Mr Northey} and I will meet you at the bye-pass road at the petrol pump you know of, where we have met before (Bignalls Corner) at 11.30 on Sunday morning. PN.{Mr Northey} says that he assumes that your cars will have 19" wheels and therefore he is putting 19" wheels on to the Hooper car he is bringing that you saw before. If it should happen that you are not fitting 19" wheels, will you please wire PN{Mr Northey} some time tomorrow, so that he may arrange accordingly. C. | ||
