Saturday 27th April
Ofice, busy morning, Shs came but didnt see them. Discussed hospital plans with S & Jafar &
went down the bazaar with H to see a water tank & site for bathing tank on the shore. Stuck
in a narrow lane & had some difficulty getting out, ee
Finally read over annual report.
Drove down to Sitra with Packer to see a piece of land they are acquiring as a sort of base,
took Snow, called on the Deanes, came back, changed, went for half an hour to a cocktail
party at Jufair & then to dinner with the McConnells, a quick party, sat & listened to music
after dinner.
Sunday 28th April
Dined at Jufair, quite a lot of people there, an early ending. Peggy & SNO & I at one table -
very argumentative.
Monday 29th April
In court most of the morning, Shaikhs came in before I went down there.
Looked in for a short time at cocktail party at airways, very crowded & very hot.
