Letter
Ida Carroll, Geoffrey Griffiths
1962

Geoffrey Griffiths wishes Ida Carroll had a good time at the play by Gwyn Thomas - possibly "The Keep" in 1962? Apparently, Gwyn was Geoffrey's "favourite author at present, though very *Welsh*." (Whatever that means!)
He complains of a "wimpy coffee" and looks forward to good food and a "pint of coffee." He looks forward to fresh air, possibly at the University FC match (with the Northern Nomads?) and will try to get in touch with the "wireless man" in Ladybarn to fix the radio.

Could this be a sequence related to this letter here: www.mdmarchive.co.uk/artefact/22573/N...
