February 1, 1989 (Wednesday)

Went for early dinner (4pm) at Mac. E was uncomfortable as Adrian was around. Worked 6-10:45pm. Another “beat mosquitoes” session. Didn’t start off well though – pre-closing delayed by commitment to front service. Smashed record again – 3 consecutive closing shifts finished off at 10:45pm! Bar declared closed at 10:15pm. Finished off completely around 10:35pm… Read More »

Went down to PH early to clean freezer. Tough job but managed to do it alone. Sort of “lectured” by Charlotte again – Jarvis disapproved of her tone and way she talked to me. Worked 6-10:45pm.

Worked from 6-10:30pm. Arrived in PH rather surprised – so quiet! Closing shift at bar with Simon – record closing time for bar on Sunday’s nightshift. Able to achieve much ‘cos Simon has improved. Left together with E after helping her with cleaning the shakers. Francis commented: “Gentleman?!” Had an intimate chat with E on… Read More »
