Sincere apologies for my absence. I have been “busy”. Well, I must have been doing something, to have let eight days go by without calling headquarters – so busy will do.

There have been a few little highlights since I last wrote, that I’ll let you in on:
I got recognition – twice! The first time was a phone call from an arriving owner saying it was like walking in to the Marie Celeste – slight overkill – I had only left the living room fan on, and a bathmat in the washing machine – hardly an abandoned ship.

The second time was a phone call from a villa manager – (they call ’em villas down here – no idea why) of one of the houses I clean, saying the holiday renters weren’t at all happy with the cleaning. They found the dishwasher full – (my speciality), and coffee under one of the beds; I was curious to know what form the coffee took – whether it was in a cup, or sticky granules on the tiles, but thought that would be pushing it.

I’m off to have a look at my About page, as I’m sure it’s a little sparse – (what’s a sparse?)
