Letter
Ida Carroll, Geoffrey Griffiths, Hilda Collens
Northern School Of Music (NSM)
1945

Griff writes to Ida while she is away and thinks the weather will improve. Optimistic of him, I know.
He's been to visit her family at their home and see their new kitchen.
His mouth is watering at the chef on the radio who made a hot souffle with ice cream in the middle but the journalist couldn't eat it as she was on a diet. Gutted.
He assures her that the finances of the NSM are in his hands and that "yes H[ilda] H[ester] C[ollens] does fully grasp the cheque situation. For her second sight of the bank statement I had written in everything against everything."
