Thumb-twiddling time

There. It’s done. The whole house gleams, there’s not a speck of dust or Dolly-fluff to be found anywhere, and Graham is beginning to slow down.  Dolly is wondering why it’s all gone quiet.

The first agent [of three] is booked in to do his valuation job at 11:30.  About two hours to go.

Then we have another booked for 16:00 this afternoon, and the last at 11:00 tomorrow.

This is not a suitable time for high thoughts or fine prose.  We need a high valuation and a fine sale.

We’ll be having our council of war tomorrow afternoon.  Until then, it’s thumb-twiddling time.
