Letter
Ida Carroll, Geoffrey Griffiths
1935

Griff moans to Ida about the travel agents he works at, "Stockport office is a dirty hole, full of dusty books and papers and most untidy" but he reassures her that he is taking care of himself.
He's jealous of her happy dreams, being too tired to dream himself. Being exhausted from work he comes home and "sank into a bath and then oblivion."
Ida's off to watch "While Parents Sleep" at the cinema and he would like to meet her for a walk.
