[I Ching Hexagram] 44.

     

Bad night of lobster born.

     

Dream: in ? Paris: room in odd Souk-plus-Montmarte quarter. Object: to see Demonstration-of-British-might Parade. Heading it, on very broad boulevard, huge tank-plus-lorry-body, latter v.[ery] broad & flat. Watching later items from outside my Souk room, was tangled(?) with two girls who spoke English well; one small, slender, very tender white flesh, cuddled up; real click at first caress. Thrilled when she said she came from TOUAI (=Douai plus Tournai). Adventures followed. Setting suggested by good war news on midnight B.B.C.—Keren, Harar, Belgarde. Girls: two barmaids (one attractive impudent young bitch) in Gibbons. My girl pure lobster.

     

Woke 4 A.M. coughing & sick.

     

Repeated accidents to: wasted one tablet.

     

Moved to Barton Brow.

     

Arranged Food Control(?) etc.

     

Chess v.[ersus] Chubby—plump idiot. One very good win with Queen & Rook sacrifice.

     

Utterly fagged through.

     

Weather foul.

     

Good woman to keep house.
