14.26 - A tiring morning shopping today but it had to be done. I had to buy a t-shirt, some trousers and a pair of shoes. The black t-shirts were no problem to find, I bought them from a sports shop so they had the New Zealand silver fern on them. Very nice! The lady in the shop was very helpful; she told me where I could get some shoes and pants. I went to The Warehouse for my shoes and at $20 they were a right bargain. The only problem is that they are slightly too big for me so I have had to stuff socks into them! Trousers were a bit more of a problem and I had to ask the lady in the sports shop again. This time I managed to find the pants but the smallest size was still too big for me! I bought them anyway but I had to turn them up using safety pins as a temporary solution! I will have to sew them tomorrow but I don't have time today. Still no sign of Colt, look like the bastards done a runner without giving the money he owes me.
Work was ok. I think I impressed them a bit as to how much I knew. I found it very easy and boring but my feet were absolutely killing from all the walking I had done so I was glad when I had finished. The work and whole setup is very different from Clark's. It's posher and more modern but seems a bit inefficient. It's weird to be back at the bottom of the promotion ladder getting not much respect. I will be back on Friday though!
