Dear Paddy,

That you may remember me - we watered the drive of the King & Queens - semi-state opening of Parliament. O.K.?
Under separate cover I have sent you the "London News" - I know you will be interested as we were there (so to speak).
I do hope you arrived

home safely - I am sure your family will be proud of you - and will be so pleased to have you back. May I say how happy I was to have met you?
Wishing you all a Holy and Happy Christmas and a Prosperous New Year.
I am,
Yours Very Sincerely
J. Frank Gallagher
