Nothing very exciting happens here at any time.
We are rather looking forward to the Army as it will be some change in
local conditions.
A Major in the Welsh Guards turned up today to look the district over
before sending his troops here.
“Blanko” asked him of his intentions, he replied “Too damn hot here
for them” so it looks as if that’s off. 
Masoud Shedadeh did not apparently let the Palestinians know about
these troop movements as the wireless operator, a peculiarly bad-tempered
Palestinian, came and asked me if I knew anything about it. I told him it was probably too damned hot for
them here. This apparently satisfied
him.
I went to Court this morning, was bored stiff with the many R.T.O.
contraventions the fines fore which have very little affect on the finees I
fancy as the majority were smirking rather contemptuously as they left the
dock.
Our Prisoner accused of robbery down the Ghore was dismissed as the
Magistrate saw reason to doubt the truth of the complainant’s statement.
Bags of Law again today
Why can’t those words like “Dwelling House” “Law” “Public” etc have
shorter definitions.
