Fort. HH didnt come as he was out hunting so I had more or less a free morning to get on with back work.
The Van Peussems & Dick to dinner also Perfect, the new Dr at Awali who is a friend of Ivy B-L, quite
pleasant but not very talkative, Van P seemed very bright. Gave Mrs VP a picture & some books - French,
there was a slight misunderstanding as I had not meant to give them.
Sunday 24th February
Meeting of landlords to consider revision of rent regulations, it lasted about two hours and after a great deal
of talk we got some answers to the questions put to them.
Dinner, with HH, Sh A & the usual lot, at the Andersons. A dreary party, HH at his worse producing
frightful platitudes about "if our people are happy we are happy" - & talking about food supplies. Afterwards
went round to the T.T.s.
