Ida Carroll, Geoffrey Griffiths
1941

Griff has been away from work with an illness but now he's getting restless, he tells Ida. He went out but when returned his parents "wanted to know why I looked like a dying duck in ta thunderstorm" and suggested reading or radio. He didn't fancy either. He would very much like to go to the cinema, preferably with her but knows it's not possible, and would have even gone alone but dreaded walking back home alone in the blackout. So radio it is.
He'll practice on his cello Boris to pass the time.
