14th January 1933 - sound advice and camel lore from an expert
Larnach and I were up well before light to try pumping Bony Bream some more, but he was so busy getting the train organized that we felt `de trop.' Yet we learnt quite a bit just watching his skills with camels: some Afghan words that camels understand, some principals of loading, camel care, prevention and treatment of sore backs, and general sound advice and camel lore from an expert. I still find it hard to love camels though.
