Letter
Ida Carroll, Geoffrey Griffiths
1941

Geoffrey Griffiths enjoys the quiet night, "the night is pleasantly calm, all have gone to bed and the fire in large, an invitation to write letters."

He is eating Rowntree's sweets "which seems naughty when you aren't with me to share them." (Guilt over not sharing sweets is surely true love.)

He dreamt of walking with her, he insists that "we can't let Hitler spoil" their rare evenings together.
