Washed the car

Yes I know you wouldn't think that was an occasion worthy of note, but although we have washed it before in the jet wash at the supermarket, it is the first time we have done it at home. We were motivated into finally doing it by going to get some sheep with a friend. We brought back five of them in two dog crates. While most of the mess went in to the crates and was easy to wash out a certain amount ended up on the floor of the back of the car. As we had already emptied everything out in anticipation of this we were able to just hose it down. While we had the hose out we thought we might as well do the rest. Annoyingly there are little spots of tar that just won't come off - they resurface parts of the road every year and it is very messy when you drive though it. Loads of little stones fly everywhere and leave a dot of tar on the car. Shows a lot against the white.
Now we just need to hoover the front and she will be as good as new! Apart from the tar spots... and the scratches on the bumper where I slightly rammed the side of the drive, and the dent in the back bumper where someone must have bumped her in a car park, and the bit of the cover for the back that has peeled up in the heat...
