I'm doing cleaning and scrubbing and hoovering.
With only short breaks to go to the arndale for some new boots and other shopping. I will watch the rest of the DVD's which arrived earlier in the week though. Band of Brothers and A bit of Fry and Laurie which should keep me interested.

I'm thinking of getting a cleaner.
That's bad, isn't it?
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Fri 27 Aug 2010, 9:02, Reply)

it's more widespread than I thought
if I didn't have massive drugs lying around all the time I'd be tempted.

and if I wasn't skint obviously.

Glad to hear it.
I keep all of my 'apparatus' in one place so I should be able to get that put away before the cleaner comes round without too much grief.

My flat is a disgrace at the moment.

my house is constantly a disgrace
because of the permanent decorating going on.

and the slovenly ways of those who live there.

our cleaner is being deported next week so got to find another. A very middle class problem.

I am terribly hungover this morning so my capacity to understand anything has disappeared.

Just answer the question, Battered.
DID YOU? DID YOU FIRE THOSE NAILS?

This may have happened. Anything could have happened yesterday. Particularly after starting on the port at 4pm/

I love a decent port.
I usually treat myself to a special one each Christmas from Selfridges.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Fri 27 Aug 2010, 9:21, Reply)

That is a really good idea
I'm going to do that this year since I won't be cooking christmas dinner for once.

just don't drink a load of Breton cider afterwards like I did yesterday

would being in a storm affect your choice of port?

That raised an actual smile

splendid

I once got a bottle of 20 year old Warres for £6.49.
It was sainsbury's after Christmas and I think someone was still drunk when they marked it down.

Not bad if your home is orderly enough to just need a quick wipe round.
bad if they have to wear an environmental suit, like my one would need.

I think if I was flush that would be one of the first things I would get.

are you a Manchesterite?
I did not know that. Or is Arndale a countrywide shopping centre chain or something?
( Kitty v1.0 desperately naive, Fri 27 Aug 2010, 9:03, Reply)

Luton Arndale is world famous
So I'm told.
( Bartleby A dead man on vacation, Fri 27 Aug 2010, 9:05, Reply)

ahhh fair enough.
I did google the word Arndale and Manchester was the only one that came up, but it might be google doing that clever/stalky thing.
( Kitty v1.0 desperately naive, Fri 27 Aug 2010, 9:09, Reply)

Just found out, its called the Mall now
Still the sort of place to avoid pickpockets, drunks and other flotsam from society.
( Bartleby A dead man on vacation, Fri 27 Aug 2010, 9:12, Reply)

The Manchester one is just full of teenage loiterers.
I really don't understand why they want to loiter in the mall.
