Lovely day, spent all the morning in the sun planting a hedge along the new area of cultivation, I hope some
of it grows. Did some work on my annual report & in the afternoon some more gardening. Felt all the better
for a day out in the open. Quite chilly in the evening coming home & we took ages by boat as tide & wind
all wrong.
The Commodore looked in before dinner to borrow books. He always looks so very well.
Saturday 9th February
Fort.
Shaikhs came in as usual. They discussed the new Persian so called northern Government's claim about
Bahrain also surgon's visit to Bn, which Sulman remembered mainly as being a boy he came in by camel
from Rafaa riding in front of his father who carried a dagger in front of his belt which stuck into Sulman's
back all the time. The Agency sent & asked Sh A when he got his CIE - so of course he & HH think
something in the wind.
