Letter
Ida Carroll, Geoffrey Griffiths
1938

Griff would rather Ida write to her on anything she can get her hands on than not write to him at all. "Can't recommend carving on stone as in the days of long ago, for it would be very slow work and rather expensive to send through the post, There is such a mode as delivering in person, but you might be tempted to throw it." Good point.
He updates her on routine and tells her that she makes it much more liveable, giving him something to look forward to.
He mentions films they could see and that he dreamt that he met "in Paris, of all places. Remember offering to show you around (which is pretty good, for I would hardly find my own way around)."
