Letter
Ida Carroll, Geoffrey Griffiths
1940

"Our final goodnight was too hasty, but we have to part some time during the evening, for some silly reason, and we did steal a nice long time from Hitler didn't we."
It's got to the point where they are more likely to meet during an air raid in a bomb shelter to spend time together. "Which would be nice really but not very romantic."
He praises the arrangement of the days of the week and the allowance of Tuesday's work load so that they can see each other. When he's working he only thinks of her half the time.
