Went down the bazaar in the morning, bought a rather nice carpet, Rs 30/- and also an old copper pot for Rs 2/- which I
polished when I got back, a nice vase for flowers. Lunched with Holmes, he does himself very well, sausage rolls & broiled
ham & lots of milk & cream & his own home made butter. Then walked back & changed for tennis at the Agency, afterwards
played Bridge. The Spences did not come as she is seedy. Have started a heavy cold in the head, great bore, dont know when I
got it.
