Washing cars is much more exciting, now that there's a drought.
It used to be me, with two buckets and a hose, standing in the driveway for ages, and getting increasingly anxious to just finish, so I could go back inside.
Now, though, we're not allowed to do that anymore. All car washings have to happen in an official way, down at the petrol station.
Which means me, holding a SuperPowerful Hose of DOOM, and a huge brush with massive amounts of white foam pumping out at an amazingly fast rate, and water spraying everywhere at top speed, and me getting soaked to the skin and NOT CARING, because I hold the Hose of DOOM and can spray water really really fast while cackling evilly.
...okay. Not cackling evilly. Well, not much.
It's really fun!

PS- I used one of those carwashes once. Much terrified laughing while trying to control the hose and brush and not drown in foam, indeed.
I was so tempted to try the deodoriser though, but it would probably have resulted in an industrial strength hideously-cloying fragrance settling into the car for the next year...
