Many thanks for the copy of your Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/2/MH.{M. Huckerby}6.2.39, however, owing to my time being very much occupied with the streamlined car, I find that I shall not be able to try this car out this week end. I therefore telephoned to Chateauroux and advised them that I was unable to use the car this week end, but that if there was no objection I would like to have it next week end.
