6 Your paragraph 10. My intention to take leave was, of course, made public several weeks ago, well before the present crisis. At the moment, I am simply taking the line in response to any enquiry that I cannot tell at present whether I shall be able to go after all or not; but I have to make certain public arrangements on the assumption that conditions will permit me to go even if these arrangements have to be cancelled at the last moment.
