Living La Vida’lerta – A Very, Very Indulgent Uncle.

I know Nigel missed Iris and Bertie so much during meltdown it hurt and then, in turn, was almost beside himself with happiness when the Lovely Laura and Tom the Scientist invited us to join their “support bubble” as meltdown restrictions were eased a little, declaring, with huge smiles (and tired eyes) that Wednesdays were now all ours ......

Crazy Bath foam...

……. however, I think we may now have to encourage the little fella to try and reign in some of his “unclely indulgencies” ……..

……. especially when it comes to impromptu afternoon bath sessions ……

……..which feature three cans of pink, blue and white bath foam, plus two red and blue Pokémon water colouring bath bombs, complete with Pokémon toy in the middle!

Admittedly the squeals of pure delight and raucous, mischievous laughter filling the all too long silent portals of the Towers were highly infectious (and behind closed doors emotional) ……..

………but, oh my giddy aunt ……… the mess!  How did the little darlings get foam on the ceiling ….. among many other places?

I’m not sure just how long it took Uncle Nigel to clean the bathroom, only that he looked a little worst for wear as he finally re-emerged, a once full Cillit Bang spray and a pile of J Cloths in hand, muttering, something, I think, along the lines of “……all things in moderation”   …………. God bless Uncle Nigel …….. provider of Happy Days!!!

Now this just looks A-Maz-ing fun time!!! I need a bath like that all to myself - well maybe I could share it with someone....on second thoughts... given the current climate... I'll do it alone. JantheFan x

Wonderful! Squeals of laughter. Foam on the ceiling? That must have taken some doing.

This is dated Sunday 5th July, yet it is Wednesday 1st July. Do we need to call Ghostbusters?
