my chair has needed a wash for a while. much to dad’s chagrin, I take it onto the football pitch – how else do I speak to bil when he’s coaching the team? It thus got verry muddy, especially it’s undercarrage.

I told my p.a we needed to clean it sometime this week. I do not think she relished the idea, although I thought it might be fun. either way, we were provaricating about itt.

We were returning from the library this afternoon after going there to do some photocopying after lunch. When we noticed a couple of workmen washing off the university van outside the flat there is a small appliance shed where they store stuff like hoses. This gave us an idea, as I was in my chair at the time, I rode up to them and asked very politely if they wouldn’t mind washing the F55 down. They happily abliged and right now the chair is in the hall off the flat, drying off.
