So there I was, working on dismantling the shed from the previous blog, and it started to get hot, so I took off my white padded jacket, went into the kitchen, and hung it on the upright vacuum cleaner that just happened to be, conveniently, standing there. Then I went to the bottom of the stairs where we keep the coats, and where, had I been thinking straight, I would have brought the coat, and I pulled out my 'Harry's Band' sunhat. It too is nice and bright white, all the better to reflect the sun, my son.

Hours later and the job was done, I went back inside and hung the sunhat over the upright vacuum cleaner which had remained obediently in the place where I left it, made myself and my mother a nice hot cup of tea, and sat down to relax for a moment or ten.

Now. Let me explain the basic layout of our house. It's very old, and the oldest part was originally just two bedrooms, two living rooms, a connecting staircase, and a toilet at the bottom of the garden.

To get to the toilet you went out through the back door which is now the door into the kitchen. The original door is still in place, and it has windows in it.

Thus it was that, drowsy after my all too brief rest, I stood up and exclaimed "What the hell is that snowman doing in the kitchen?"

Startled, mum looked up, and I, realising my mistake, pretended it was a joke.

Now you know better.
