Shiney

Travelled to Weegie land for a viewing at my parent's house. Still not sold. It only takes one (as I am told).

My brother is doing a great job keeping the garden tidy - but next time I'm up I'll need to clean the windows. It's a great house in a fabulous area, hard to believe it won't sell. Today's viewers were a lovely couple and their very cute wee boy.

We also managed a trip to see Mr and Mrs Tickles. They have been friends of our family since I was a teenager and my mum ran kids discos (Mr Tickles was the bouncer!). The boys came to the disco dressed as Adam Ant - it was the first time I'd ever seen boys wearing makeup.

My dad couldn't stand Top of the Pops, and I would escape to their house every Thursday where I had my own mug and slippers.

On Hogmanay we would escape my dad's Lena Martell records and go to their house where the records were more trendy (although a bit too much Rod Stewart !).

Mr and Mrs tickles bought me my wedding dress. When they sent the cheque, there was a spare 10p added to the amount. When I queried it, it was from Mr Tickles in case I ever needed to phone them.

Their whole house is Showroom Spotless (until we visit) - and here's their brand newly fitted shiney bathroom !
