Saturday December 24th 1932
Arrived shop at 8am‑I should have been there at 7am but nothing happened.
In spite of the rush, I was not serving much in the shop. Had some chickens to tie; horrible job, awful little birds, we had to tie in such a way that the emaciated breasts had a plump appearance. In the cellar most of the day, tidying, cleaning and clearing the rubbish.
Dinner at the Woolworth cafe, with Langley, for a change. In the afternoon, Regan joined me in the cellar. Odd jobs. Half an hour allowed for tea. Went to Marks & Spencer' s, bought Mrs Wood two gramophone records.
The Company Inspector, Mr Slaughter, saw our tidy cellar and was satisfied. Christmas box 2/6. Left 11pm. ‑ Nobody has been sacked. Tired out.
