hot, a breeze blowing. Shaikhs came in, Zubara for about an hour & various other affairs. HH wouldnt go
back about refusing land to the P.C.L
Didnt go out in the afternoon, wrote letters.
Went to the cinema, quite a funny silly picture.
Sunday 5th August
Had Wilby for some time in the morning, still seems very unfit, I would not be surprised if he did not come
back, which would be tiresome. Saw Ali Kanoo, still fussing about YK & the APOC Agency. I dont feel at

nasty scheming fellows. Spent some time in Food Control Office & ordered all receipts to be done in Arabic
- having discovered they were in English - for no reason apparently.
Customs, but not for long as the head Clerk was away.
