Field mice, head lice, spiders in the kitchen … 

It’s important to have a housesitter while you’re at a festival. 

He (or she) is nameless. Well, he (or she) may have a spider name. 

It’s been an inhabitant of our kitchen for a couple of weeks now. He’s (or she’s) now firmly a part of the household, though. So we could trust her (or him) to look after the house. 

Eels are, as most people who know me, aware, are my most favourite band. If you have a spare minute, have a listen to Flyswatter.
