I am starting to get excited about going to the Strettons to work, but oh dear. I don't know what to pack. Because I am not sure what is appropriate attire to work there and what will be suitable. Miss Penworthy gives me new robes each year so I do have old ones to use but they are not very smart I am afraid. And I want to look suitable. But I don't want to wear my new robes because if I ruin them with jam Miss Penworthy will be very cross. Except she is ill again, and that is worse because it will be her nephew who will be very cross, and he is even more cross than she is when there are unexpected expenditures. They are both very displeased by unexpected expenditures so I need to be very careful not to have any.
Also is there anything I should bring that I might not know about? I have been trying to think what there might be, except that is the point of not knowing. About what to bring, I mean. So if you could tell me I would be very grateful.
I hope I will do okay. Will it be very busy, do you think? It is exciting but also I am nervous.
