"Grange-over-Sands- Thanks for your two letters. I had intended going to Workington today, but as the weather was bad, put it off until tomorrow. Hope to be at Cockermouth by midday and Workington in early afternoon, but cannot give exact times as I shall be going by car. Will look out for you at both places. Have had some LIVE/LNE? Lops??? At Southport today! Went to Barrow and Coniston yesterday. The old "Coppernob” has been sent away to Euston, so I missed it. Regards etc Bob ”
