I went out & got a paper at about 7:00 but there weren’t many jobs in it. We went and had a cup of hot chocolate and a sausie roll at the Russell Café then mucked around the hostel till 12:00 when Linda went off for her first days work. I watched TV for a while then went out to look for work. Wandered round a few building sites with no luck then walked all the way down Swanson St looking in shop windows for that elusive “Help Wanted” sign. Went back to the hostel empty handed and Linda was home. She had had a good day & made a bit of money to pay the rent!
