1945

Tuesday 19th November

HH didnt come in, Parker brought one of his people to call, a man I have met before, en route from the East
to UK. Worked all morning in the office & saw various people

Went out to see HH in the afternoon at Rafaa, Galloway had told him that he would write a long letter with
all the arguments about Zubara & would come out tomorrow to draft it so HH wanted one to prepare a full
"report" as he now calls it on the facts & the argument.

Rance & Smith came in and we dealt with handicaps for the races. M really did most of the work, she knows
more about the horses than anyone.

Dined with the Grisewoods & went to a very bad picture so awful that we gave it up & walked out - I with no
regrets. It was meant to be funny, American film of the very worst type.
