The dining room was closed until sunset on Saturday, and thus eight thousand people scattered in huts along a beautiful valley were thrown at their own expense. They played cricket with some energy, they bathed in mountain ponds, hiking and long training walks were held. Rabbits, too, were getting scarce, and Sir Myles Llangaren protested against the slaying of pheasants in August.
