A 20/20 Legacy: the centenary of the Northern School of Music

Artefact

Letter
Ida Carroll, Geoffrey Griffiths
1940

Griff replies to Ida's letter and asks her about the children's party she's organising at her house. He asks her for a walk after if there's time, "is there any change of persuading you to help me to see whether the buildings are still standing around Lapwing Lane at about 8.30ish?"
Griff has been terribly ill with a cold, in bed for 5 days. He has managed to do some music exercises and read some books.
He thinks "now is the time to make smoking reforms" for his health but he won't give up tobacco altogether.
