Letter
The Hallé, Ida Carroll, Geoffrey Griffiths, St James Church Choir at Birch-in-Rusholme, St Paul's Church Choir At Withington
1939

Griff stresses that he can't seem to get away from slimming references at the moment, they seem to be everywhere.
He tells Ida about the book he's reading, "Decline and Fall of a British Matron" by Mary Mitchell.
He asks her out as a gap in her diary has opened up. He chats about his obligation to Birch Church and Hallé choirs, as well as being offered a place on the St Paul's choir in Withintgton.
