This is really a very good time to be cleaning up at home and the office. Nothing puts folk off visiting a client’s office than a badly maintained kitchen or washroom facility. To get things into better shape, gather together a cleaning kit – two buckets with sturday handles. In one put good quality rubber […]
There are s many facets about running an office or being landlord of properties. Getting the tenants in is not generally the problem but preparing the office or flat to receive them is very time and energy consuming. Of course it is possible to do these things yourself, but the finish will never be as […]
For years now I have been taking a very aged relative to see her rather poorly son in hospital. It’s quite an expedition for both of us and it starts back at her home even before the trauma of getting her into my car. On one occasion it was chaotic – she couldn’t find her […]
Knowing how to get the best out of your cleaning lady or company can be a bit perplexing at first. I do know someone who gets in a real tussle with herself when the cleaner is due in. These days my acquaintance is very frail and doesn’t always remember to clean up after visit to […]
I do love having a clean shiny car. I like even better having a clean shiny car that’s also possible to get into without climbing over bags of rubbish and dog associated hardware. I’m not sure why some folk treat their only vehicle as a dust cart – I’ve seen no end of vw […]

I hated the mess following folk into the very posh stores that line the main avenue. I alrady get dispproving glances from the willowy […]
I have been feeding the birds in my garden for years but only in the last three have I been taking greater interest in how they actually take their turn at the trough or feeding tables. The smaller garden birds come down early on and peck at the dispensers – they’re crafty little blighters too, […]
At this very hot time of year we do tend to use a huge amount of water on not very much. It has become obvious to me personally in these last few weeks of extra ordinary and worrying heat, that I waste water and as I’m usually rather careful, this means that others must waste […]
I was assisting at a function in a village hall recently. I used to be actively involved in the same village, regularly attending fund raisers in the very same place. It had dark roughly treated toilet facilities, the least inviting part of the operation. The kitchen wasn’t a great deal better. When village committees are […]
