the ... Dance at the Jebel. Quite a good dance. Talked a long time to Morris. I like him, he consulted me
about making navy non-members of their club. They were going to ask us to be so that we can buy books
of drink chits. It will be much better. Mrs Abrahams went on in a very queer way - really an awful
woman. Stayed till after twelve, tried to go early but they had a sort of supper - very nasty. Most of the
oil coy women were there. Danced a few dances but not many, a lot of the sailors were there & seemed to
enjoy it. The Carters had an NCO from the ship - "an old family friend". Fisher was most amused. In the
navy they never mix! The Petty Officer, poor man, looked very exhausted.
