Letter
Ida Carroll, Geoffrey Griffiths
1938

Griff writes to Ida about a senior member of staff at the Swan and Leach Travel Office (now the Costa on Albert Square) not letting Griff listen to the music he like on the radio like the BBC Symphony Orchestra, "The atmosphere artistic in leisure moments at number twenty-seven Princess Street is not all it might be." The chap "states frankly that the singers of those days were far superior to those of today" and Griff says he would be welcome to listen to whatever he likes "if only he would cease to talk about them!" Griff has therefore been careful not to mention any music that this chap does like.
Griff updates Ida on card game scores and says he has a cold. Again.
