| W/S. Lp.{Mr Lappin} from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 1104? Lp{Mr Lappin}2/BH.9.1.37. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}27/R.19.1.37. With reference to the Aprilia, I feel I ought to try this car as it has so many interesting features. Could we possibly borrow Hindmarsh's car and have it at Derby for a day or so if we loan him something in return; we might even threaten him with a P.III. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
