What did I say earlier today? (Don’t worry – I don’t expect you to know) – something about the English who come down here and drink for Britain;  a couple I checked in to an apartment this afternoon had driven down from Wales, with a carload of stuff, and I offered to help them unload some of it; and in amongst the three cats, the coats, the hats and the suitcases, were six boxes of wine which I carried in for them…

As for the other place I went to earlier today to drop off the clean linen, the key that was supposed to have been left for me wasn’t  in it’s hiding place;and with perfect timing, it started to rain again. Well, I couldn’t stand around on the doorstep and let the linen get wet,could I? So after a quick phone message to the property manager enquiring about the key’s whereabouts, followed by a text to show I was “serious”, I put the linen and myself back in the car and raced home. Happy days!
