| 1245 W/P. Sr. from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}1/R.30.6.38. TRIP TO PARIS ON SATURDAY. Dear Sr., We have now had to alter our arrangements slightly owing to the fact that the congestion on British Airways is such that we cannot get 3 seats together on the earlier 'plane. We shall, therefore, be crossing on the machine which leaves Heston 17.35, and arrives Le Bourget 19.10. We shall be glad if you would meet us the other end. We presume that owing to the speed with which you will negotiate the Paris traffic we shall not have to rush to get changed in time for the Show. Re our activities on Sunday, if you have not already fixed up the Golf, I suggest that you let the matter slide as I think my Brother-in-Law would like to re-consider what he wants to do when he sees what he feels like on Sunday morning. My Brother-in-Law is not returning until Monday afternoon. Yours sincerely, | ||
