Letter
Ida Carroll, Geoffrey Griffiths
1940

Griff writes to Ida that he is still laid up in bed with a cold. In response to her query if there's anything she can do for him, he responds "yes there is, don't catch a severe cold."
He dreamt about her. She was talking to a man in a hotel lobby and he couldn't get to her and had to chase something aimlessly around a dark street, after which she asks him to post a letter to himself. Oooookay.
"I am ashamed of myself - that is, I am ashamed about catching a cold that had the temerity to turn slightly feverish for a time." Griff, my friend, I'm glad you never had to deal with covid.
