Substitute cleaner

Katrina the Cleaner is on holiday. So instead we have Not-Katrina the Cleaner, but she still cleans, and she still accepts a cheque in Katrina the Cleaner's name. All is well.

Except once TheBloke (TM) came home early and Not-Katrina the Cleaner jumped up a bit guiltily from the sofa, where she was watching TV and started dusting a book. It doesn't really bother me if she chooses to spend her time watching TV, so long as the cleaning is done.

And today when we got home from work and Not-Katrina the Cleaner had been, we put the TV on to watch one of our favourite programmes (The Life and Times of Tim if you're interested, and why wouldn't you be?), which we'd recorded on Sky+. We were confused at first, as when we pressed play, it said "End of Recorded Programme". Then we realised. Not-Katrina the Cleaner had been watching our stored programmes on Sky+, and had got to the end of this particular show. The sneaky little cleaner.

Stil, at least she avoided watching the hardcore pornography that my parents keep Sky Plussing whenever they visit.
