Letter
Ida Carroll, Geoffrey Griffiths
1938

Griff writes to Ida passing on some well wishes from an acquaintance. He's back from sorting the accounts in Huddersfield and hopes not to return.
Ida's in high demand but seems to slip through people's fingers at church. He went home when he couldn't see her to practice his singing which was sadly not up to spec, "the next door neighbours suffered and I suffered. Probably the Parents suffered as well, but aunty is deaf."
He discusses radio concerts and the heavy work load at the travel agency as they "seem to be sending a good many people to a good many places, and life is getting a trifle complicated."
Cinema is compared and her plans for Port Patrick holiday are confirmed by her father at the travel agency as well as rummy league scores.
