Sunday 11th August

Cow calved

Office, Ramadhan is a very leisurely month for me & few people come in, not a great deal to do in the office
& no callers.

Tunnicliffe gone to Basra to look at army stores for sale there.

Dick Snow came round to talk about Miss Macguire who now wants to go on leave to India.

Didnt go out in the afternoon, the TTs came in & stayed quite a long time, they, now, like every one else, say
the Norfolk is not up to standard.

Court after dinner, mostly cases against youths who are dealt with by caning on the spot, much to the
pleasure of the large crowd which gathered outside to see the fun, the Court in Ramadhan is a sort of show as
we hold it in north room & all the people look in from outside. Quite cool.
