Valet Service

 Prior to attending the Brookfield's Rally last weekend, we were invited to stay with Helen and Owen overnight in Lower Hutt.  Why?  All because he wanted to give our caravan roof another clean down after doing such a marvelous job  removing lichen some months ago.  We were parked up beside their house, safe and secure behind the high fence.

Gemma enjoyed her time here, trotting in and out of the caravan door, safely on her lead.  With no worries about marauding dogs coming by, both of us were happy with her being outside in this setting.  We enjoyed 4zees outside under the tree, sheltered from the hot sunshine.

Owen was up bright and early the following morning with his ladder, water and soft broom.  It took him a while to get right around roof.  No fears of falling off the ladder, he was a fearless cleaning machine indeed.

Once the roof cleaning had been done to Owen's satisfaction, he wasn't finished by any means.  The walls of the caravan got a clean as well.  Then out came the blacking - wheels were done and the storage box on the drawbar too.  The caravan certainly had a great valet service.

Robin is not comfy climbing ladders these days, and we really appreciated all the effort that Owen put in.  Many thanks for the hospitality and we left for the weekend rally looking spic and span.
