Letter
The Hallé, Ida Carroll, Geoffrey Griffiths
1938

Griff writes to Ida now he's back from the Isle of Wight, and makes up for the things he missed when he wrote to her last.
He says that is she is getting a Sunday season ticket (likely for the Hallé) then he will have one too, if she isn't then neither shall he. He weighs up the pros and cons of getting on and says that if she is with him, there will be no negatives.
He discusses music, walks, radio, reading "six or seven books a week" (my God do you sleep?!), old friends and her preferred past times.
