Fort. Court & then office. I have now nearly finished my annual report. Went out to see the Shaikh in
afternoon at Sakhir, stayed some time, discussed various things, including his trip to England, he really
wants to go but he may cool off at any rate it will be alright as I have got my leave next year. Then went
down to Seddad, bathed first in the sea, very nice sandy beach but rather shallow, then in the bath house.
Stayed out there till sunset & then drove home. Quite a cool day. Shamaal blowing all day.
Tuesday 28th May
Fort & Office - nothing much of interest. One of the Hindus & Zayani sent some really nice mangoes, the
season has begun. Played tennis at the Mission, Mrs Dame is going to Hassa, Mrs Hakkem has been ill -
malaria. Very dull tennis.
