I thought I'd have a quiet day
One that's free of stress
With one lad back at college
The other at Skegness.

I settled down quite comfortably
Logged on - just for a while
Then there was a knock at the door
I was greeted with a smile.

'
There was a lad with bright purple hair
Spiked up like a kind of star
'I've come to start your drive'
He said 'give you a decent path'.

Well last time he called - was Friday
He was wearing a woolly hat
I forgot he'd said he'd come today
Typical.......I'm such a daft bat !

He gave me such a start he did
But credit where it's due
He's worked hard all day on my drive
Cleaning the slabs there 'cos they'll do.

My neighbour laid them down last year
But it never was completed
Which is why this lad turned up today
And with purple hair I was greeted !

The cost ? Well it's a hundred quid
But well worth all those pounds
Cos I'm fed up with my driveway
Looking like some waste ground !

So, that's been my day so far
Not much more to say
Now I'm off to sort out dinner
(My turn to cook today !!)
