A letter from Gordon Radley, Chairman of English Electric-LEO-Marconi Computers Limited, to David Caminer, typed on to letterhead paper.

Transcription:

Dear Caminer,

 This is to convey my warm congratulations on the press announcement about the Post Office order. It has been a splendid achievement to get this order, and I am most grateful for all the hard work that you and your team must have put in to bring it home to English Electric-Leo.

The only apprehension I now have is lest anyone should get up in the House of Commons and ask why such a magnificent order should come to a company with an ex-Director General of the Post Office as its Chairman! This would be quite unfair, because I have done very little to help - the achievement has been all yours.

With all good wishes

Yours Sincerely

Gordon Radley
