1942

Monday 18th May

Fort.

Didnt go to court as Sh A & then H.H. came in & stayed a long time. HH suddenly
suggested the school play should be given again for women, so late in the day.
Didnt go out, busy arranging for dinner party for play which I had on the lawn.
It went off very well, 15 people, cold dinner, then all went to the play at the
cinema which was well done & very full.

Tuesday 19th May

Spent morning in the Court instead of Monday.

Spent afternoon at Palace seeing the Girls' School show of needlework etc. a
tremendous lot of stuff & much of it very nice. The two headmistresses both
rather chilly to each other but no complaints. Went to the cinema taking the
Gunns quite a good film.

Wednesday 20th May

Fort.
Taking on another 30 new recruits, rather a poor lot coming up now.

To Budega, had a good look at the Garden. Seemed very well.

Went to library & then to the cinema, bad show, to the TTs afterwards.
