Holidays are coming

The Christmas trees went up in the high street today.

The sun came out today and there's one thing low winter does, it reveals what needs cleaning. I'm thinking of our oven door as well as the sides of this bus stop. When we moved in the oven wasn't, how shall I put it, something you'd eat off. I took a leaf out of my stylish friend Jeff's book and booked in an oven valet (I'd not heard of them). At a price, Alan came and restored the cooker to 'show room' standard. "How do I keep it this way?" I lamely enquired. "Eat salad" and off he popped for a round of golf!
