You will please come to us 2 Grove Park on Saturday if you can. We are looking forward to your visit. We shall be perfectly ready and can easily put you up. On Thursday we are having a house warming so to speak, but it will be all set straight.
When you stroke a glass tube to get dust figures, the dust inside the tube gives quite a different pattern to dust in another tube end on. [Diagram] Nodes much further apart, Why is this?
Yours etc,
