almost freezing

Eric and his wife

neighbours of my father

had every other weekend away

with the Caravan Club

and it would take him an hour

to manoeuvre the caravan

 onto the road.

I looked after his cats

for the payment of a packet of sweets

and the strict instruction

I never go into the house.

We all knew what the caravan club did

on the fortnightly get together

and why Mrs. Willis

was always smiling.
