portrait of the Mister

who has been hoovering and cleaning skirting boards most of the day in preparation for the royal visit from the daughters.  

you know how some men pretend they're deaf so they don't have to listen to their chattering wives?  the Mister has a bolder method:  earphones with interesting podcasts at the other end.

for those who are curious, he was listening to The Grognard Files.
