Two pages, 21 x 20cms, fold marks but text clear and in good condition. Dear Hunter, | Thanks. Have made a few corrections & also - | a) Could you play down the heal;th bit? Sometimes it's pretty good, but this sort of thing scares off commissions & bloody terrifies the bank manager. b) The subject of money. The position is frightful. If you saw the size of the overdraft & the back tax demands, you'd go white overnight. But, again, it gets up the nose of the afore mentioned Bank Manager & what Archie Rice [The Entertainer] called the Income Tax Man. We are treading on sliver-thin ice here.
