To Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Sg. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}
Copy to Wor. {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} PN. {Mr Northey}

re 58-GN - the Car I use.

Sg {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} 10/E5.10.31

Referring to R2/M1.10.31 I suggest that
you should not fit the thinner disc to the flywheel as well
as the diamond mounting. Otherwise the result of the
experiment will become confused.

25-EX

I shall probably drive 25-EX up to Derby on
Saturday next and, if 58-GN is ready, I could drive it
back on Sunday. If not, I will of course come back
on 25-EX.
