Friday [5th April]
Slept late though I had to go to see the Resident in the morning. Went across after a very hurried short
breakfast. Stayed about an hour. Discussed the Ibn Saoud delegation and other matters, he said he had
sent up the question of my leave & increment & was sure it would be approved, that at all events is
satisfactory so I hope I shall get home next year to get some more pay too. Drove to Jufair. In the
afternoon M went to Sakhrir, I wrote letters & gardened. Party at the Agency in evening, a very dull
party. Cole was very nervous & the PR is never a social success - heavy!
