Wednesday 26th March

Spent most of morning at the Fort. Looked over the barasti for a film the medical people are going to do
Ranee & Bradley came to tea & we finished the handicaps for the races, I copied them all out & took them to
give to L Smith.
Enormous cocktail party at the Smiths, lovely day, quite cool, a strong shamaal. I dislike these parties
exceedingly, however its a good way of polishing off a lot of people who one has to do something about. ^
Hay very sour about the races.
