    The last time I was thinking of dusting, the phone rang and my local political party said
     'The BBC is predicting that the General Election will be called at teatime today.  Please can you get down to the office, we're mobilising right now'. I wasn't the only one saved from housework by a snap election being called, not by a long chalk.  It must have been May 2024.  We're all still healthy...love Humdinger xx
