Nure, apparently causing much comment in the bazaar. ABJ was pushed into buying one. He also discussed

Monday 22nd January

Fort. Very cold day. Court, the clerk absent & a very stupid one acting so cases took a long time. A
complicated case about ration cards & two food control clerks, also the driving accident in which 4 Police
were knocked down by a drunken driver. Gave the latter & his friend a year. Very late getting back from
Court. Lovely day but cold. Drove round the race course which is getting on well. Dined with the
Hutchings, quite a good dinner, saw his latest pictures, some of them I liked but by no means all.
