Fort. Office. HH away hunting - dealt with DC's affairs, pay .

DC lunched with us & then finding boat delayed stayed on. Towndrow, RAF
chaplain came in afternoon so we had him & DC staying. Went up to the
Palace & drove round about.

Sunday 21st March

At Customs all the morning DC left early for the boat & the parson for
his plane. Had a tremendous tidying up at the Customs got the office
swept & put straight. It looks quite different. Removed much of the
furniture which had been sold & made inventory

Spent most of the afternoon at Customs sorting out old boxes & papers.
All seemed in a great muddle & no method of keeping or filing official
letters.

TTs came in to dinner & she played the piano but not not very well. Mrs
Wakefield came in earlier to call, very pleasant.
