Letter
Ida Carroll, Geoffrey Griffiths, Granville Hill
1938

Griff writes to Ida about his week, and only glanced at her along the road as he was driven past after church. He refrained from "tooting" at her, "I regret you were not able to recognise the doubtless handsome male occupant of the car that *did* toot at you."
He "was pleased to hear about your diplomatic stroke with Mr G.H.", and admits to admiring some of the travel agent's female clients. One of his colleagues even managed to accompany a tour of ladies to Paris, and got into ripe trouble for it after.
