Fields of Mud

I had my car professionally cleaned for the first time 2 weeks ago -here & I was delighted with the result.

None us could remember the car ever looking like that! For a couple of rides Sam even took his shoes off before placing his stockinged feet on the floor..

Then three days later I went to pick up Ben after wind band - accompanied by two mates, all with bags, musical instruments, muddy shoes and handfuls of half eaten muffins, (they had had a cookery class).

Even as I was telling them them to "be careful of the clean car", I heard a chorus of "oh no's" and in the back seat one of the plastic bags of cooking ingredients was leaking.... milk....all over floor & upholstery!

I tried my best to get it off, but now the smell of sour milk as well as wet dog is competing with the newly dangling "auto glym" air freshener and the carpets are once again muddy and wet. Today I managed to splatter mud all over the outside of the windows.

Oh that the mud would stay in the fields where it belongs....
