The time on the microwave reads 6:01. That means it's been six hours and 1 minute since the flash powercut.
I was studiously watching the advert for Cillit Bang today. Were I an affluential house owner, I would definitely have that in my cleaning cupboard. But then a thought struck me. It showed two perfectly manicured fingers dipping a 1p coin into Cillit Bang, and the half that was dipped came out bright and shiny, oooo, so beautiful! I think all banks and shops should clean all their money! Think how beautiful Britain would be then. Beautiful Britain, with its shiny coins, known the world over for the care it takes with it's money. When you paid for something, it would be like receiving a present when you get your shiny coin back. As a nation (yes, I speak for all of us) we might silently think or comment aloud 'that's a shiny coin'. It could make some people's days and the world would be a happier place. Therefore I make a motion that all places dealing with money should have a vat of Cillit Bang somewhere in the back room to clean up their coins. Oh, and maybe an iron for the notes. Yes.
It's been luuuurvely weather today. The bright sunshine, the light breeze that was strong enough to knock over the tall, sweet-scented, stand alone plants that feature on the concrete part of the garden, and the cloudless sky. Oh, if only there had been a full roast dinner to go with that with a choice of three different meats and the day would have been complete. As it was I ate a Thai curry, which until now I did forget about but it was extremely tasty.
So, I am off to do some cleaning and ironing, slaters.
