12 January: Polishing

dirty window metaphor for dirty politics
Dirty Windows

Vinegar 
Water 
The Guardian  

Polishing windows 
Labour away last week's weather  
Wax on - wax off - wax on

Vinegar 
Water 
The Telegraph 

Polishing smears 
     it's a conservative effort 
Wax off - wax off

      Paperboy? What paperboy? It’s a morning walk to the local Co-op. Peder buys The Telegraph. I buy the Guardian. I admit that The Telegraph is a better non-streak quality though.

        Well you’re sorted if there is another run (excuse the pun) on toilet rolls!

      ps: Our little newsagent no longer sells newspapers because he says he loses money on them. So he sells mags, sweets, cold drinks and ciggies.

        Our local newsagent first became a reptile shop and is now empty.
