Dear Sirs: We are very much obliged by your letter of 15th November addressed to our Letchworth plant, and would like to thank you for sending on to us the sample set of tubing parts so that we can arrange to make up a set in "Bundylim" Tubing utilising the existing fittings. This sample set will of course be made by hand and it is just possible that in removing your fittings we may distort to some extent the samples which you have been good enough to send on to us. We feel sure that you will appreciate this point, and that when we submit our samples to you there may be some slight deviation on this account. We have also to acknowledge and thank you for your order No.34884 covering the set of tubing parts already referred to. These will be forwarded on to you as soon as possible, and will be invoiced to you as soon as costs have been established. Yours faithfully, For BRITISH BUNDY TUBING CO. LTD.
