Wednesday 17th July

Fort

Four horses, including Saudia, have now got this nasty complaint, sores
on their noses. Nobody seems to know the illness.

Busy morning

Dodds came in, leaving tomorrow for leave in India very longwinded & full
of talk of the unrest among Europeans re war & charities.

Sh Ali g Ahmed re the rumours about trouble at Bapco - he had not heard
anything. M & Mr on town planning, mapped out a lot of new
roads.

Bathed Senian. Planted cannas in the new garden.

Dinner Airways, Bridge, rather stuffy & felt very sleepy.

Thursday 18th July

Cool day.

Fort.

Office, busy morning.

DG & Lynne came in & various other people. The idea of a strike at the
was sheer imagination, Kennedy, having taken Black's place, is somewhat
credulous.

Went down to the hospital & to the Fort. The four mens wards are all
filled now & the top ward getting on well.

Dined with Snow & went to "South Riding" a very good film, a pleasant
evening, quite a good dinner, well cooked & well served.
