I AM back on schedule. There’s a TV in the tiny flat where I’m currently residing, but it didn’t work: “weak or no signal”, it warned in the heartless way of the machines. The landlord suggested getting an aerial booster but that made no difference either.
I’ve been spilling food down my front again. My front is hardly front-page news. Spillages down it are an everyday occurrence. Diary entry: “Got up. Spilled food down shirt. Watched telly. Went to bed.”
It’s the time of the toad. Signs have gone up beside the pond at the foot of the suburban hill warning stravaigers to watch out for amphibians underfoot.
I hope my next house has an attic. I’ve been clearing out the one in the home I’ll soon be departing and don’t know what I could have done without it.
I ask you to be upstanding and join me in a toast to that most noble of professions: the cleaner.
