Rode. Court, nothing very interesting. Went round to see Ranee after court & discussed car allocation
telephone scheme & one or two other matters. Galloway came in, he is always so queerly dressed, and we
went upstairs & had a drink. He seemed quite amiable but he has what is described as "an unfortunate
manner" his bridge is due on Wednesday.

In the afternoon went to Sh Ayeshas house with Snow Miss A & White & spent a long time there going over
all the rooms & arranging what they were to be used for. Navy had a cocktail party but no proper invitation
so didnt go.

Leigh returned in the morning & came in to dinner, White being out for dinner. He talked incessantly,
3 mainly about his house affairs in Cairo.
