Check your attics everyone, you never know what might turn up!

I like the fact that although a very routine sort of letter, JRRT has taken time to (presumably) dictate a specific answer, eg mentioning the teacher by name. So much better than the generic 'thank you for your kind interest, etc etc' that could be sent to anyone.
