I posted this in May 2017 :-
This incident happened a month or so ago and I thought it might be of interest.
A couple of friends came round to see us one evening and during the evening a conversation began on the subject of finding time to do the housework, cleaning and dusting etc. Our friends said that they had decided to do something about it and set about to find a cleaner who would visit on a regular basis, say once a week or every two weeks. It transpired that they came across an advert in a local newspaper which looked promising so contacted the person and arranged for her to call.
Before I go any further I must explain that this couple have no idea that we are normally a full-time clothes free family, in fact we even remove our robes from near our front entrance when they call, to avoid any awkward questions which almost certainly would embarrass them.
They continued to recall how they had found what looked like a suitable lady in a local newspaper and arranged for her to call one evening and were somewhat surprised to see a young girl, no more than twenty years old at the most, on their doorstep as, for some reason, they had expected to see a middle-aged lady. Undaunted, they said, they invited her in and offered to take her coat which she removed to reveal a very short skirt and a blouse that left nothing to the imagination. Mind you I don't think it would take very much to shock this couple as they are a bit prudish.
They recalled how they had a short conversation with her so as not to appear rude but seemingly they had no intention of taking it any further due to her dress which they found to be very suggestive. Our friends wife recalled, in a very shocked tone, that as the young lady sat on the settee it was obvious that she was not wearing any knickers. Shock horror!
By this time my brain was working overtime trying to think of a way to get a name or contact number for this cleaner without making it too obvious. Then I thought of a way!
I said, “so I don't make the same mistake, which newspaper did you see this advert in and can you remember her name?” My heart skipped a beat when he immediately not only told me which newspaper it was in but also gave me her name without any further prompting.
When our friends left later that evening the first thing my wife, Jill, said was “I know what your plan is and I bet before the week is out we will have a cleaner, mind you, I must admit I'm also looking forward to it”
To be continued.
