I note what you say concerning this, and this will suit us quite well. We really want to take a coloured photograph of it for our catalogue and at the same time want to go over the various points of it to see whether we can improve it, with a view to getting a body for demonstration purposes. As soon as we have finished with it you can have it back if you want it - which I understand you do. C. | ||
