The Hallé, Ida Carroll, Geoffrey Griffiths, Hilda Collens
Northern School Of Music (NSM)
1939

The "beastly" bus service loitered at the stop, which Griff gripes that he could have been spending that time with Ida instead.
He refers to a concert he's looking forward to with the Hallé.
He will definitely meet her on Tuesday or the time between now and when he sees her at the end of next week "is not to be endured."
He discusses going to the theatre with her and is glad she liked The Lambeth Walk from the film Me and My Girl. He admits to being a Lupino Lane fan.
He asks, "What is the cerebellum please?" and says "I hope Miss C[ollens] toddles in all well and sound and gives you a good chasing round on Friday and Saturday, though I suppose she will be weak and the boot will be on the other foot.
