Triple Shifts

Tuesdays have become fragmented with three regular work shifts (two minibus driving and one tutoring), totalling just two and a half hours spread between noon and six p.m., and as there is not much time to do anything between shifts other than drink tea and eat cake, I also put in a triple shift of home chores this morning before the clock struck twelve: a laundry load washed and hung on the line, the front grass mown and, most innovatively, the car interior vacuum cleaned.
