We book them in on the hour
And smie as they walk through the door.
"Sorry I'm a little late,the kids spilt milk on the floor"
"No worries just take a seat"
And smile as the file grinds a little more.
"Oh God I've had such a terrible week!
Be careful dear!That nail JUST FELL OFF when I tried to fix the kitchen tap leak.
And we smile and change the file.
"That husband of mine,I tell you dear,
I don't know if I'll put up with him one more year.
Just watch that finger,it's a little sore,I jammed it last night in the fridge door"
And we smile as we begin to prime.
It's that secretary Pam you know,he seems to spend all his time.....
Honey that's stinging!It feels like lime.
My hands are so dry but don't worry dear they're fine.
And we smile as the brush begins to stroke.
"He tells me that we're nearly broke.
I've noticed that THAT PAM gets a new car each year.
I don't know how she can afford it.
My old Merc finds it hard to change gear"
And we smile as we buff and file.
"Is that all the polishes you've got?
Its really hard to choose from that lot.
Oh,the red will do.It will go with the blue.
Thanks honey,its a great job you do!
And we smile as we bid them adieu.
"Morning Pam.No,your not late.Take a seat"
And we smile................!!!!!!
