4. WE ARE SLIGHTLY PUZZLED BY PARA 8, AS WE ARE UNAWARE OF ANY MEETING AT 10.15. THIS SEEMS IN ANY CASE IMPOSSIBLY EARLY.
HOWEVER,
DO PROPOSE TO HOLD A PREPARATORY MEETING AT THE FCO AT 11.00 A.M. PLEASE CONTACT THE EXCO MEMBERS WHO ARE ALREADY IN LONDON AND ASK THEM TO MEET US AT THE FCO AT 11.00 OR AT THE HOTEL AT 10.45. PLEASE TELL THE FCO THAT WE SHALL ALL BE ARRIVING AT 11.00.
5. IN ORDER TO GIVE US TIME TO WASH AND CHANGE AT THE HOTEL BEFORE THE MEETING, THE GOVERNOR WOULD LIKE TO GO BY TRAIN FROM GATWICK TO VICTORIA, AS WE DID IN MAY. GRATEFUL IF YOU WOULD BUY TRAIN TICKETS FOR THE WHOLE PARTY, AND ARRANGE FOR US TO BE MET AT VICTORIA AND FOR ALL THE LUGGAGE TO BE TRANSPORTED BY CAR FROM GATWICK TO THE HOTEL.
6. Q W LEE HAS ALREADY LEFT HONG KONG. PAS(C) WILL INFORM YOU SEPARATELY OF O V CHEUNG'S ARRIVAL TIME.
