Arthur received a call asking him to come in and help at the Consulate again. He has to dress formally in black pants and a white shirt to serve breakfasts to the hotel guests. Then he changes into casual shorts and shirt and does sweaty gardening. When this is finished for the day, he sands down wrought iron chairs, then paints them with hammerite (a special paint that prevents rust on iron). Even between ships, when there are hardly any guests, he will still have work for a while – there are about 30 chairs to sand and paint.
