Thanks lads,

It was a DA but I'm ashamed to say that I didn't do it. It was the ex-husband of an old friend/colleague of mine. He runs a valeting
service in Swindon (Desirable Valeting).

Sorry for late reply. I've been out in the wilds for the last few days with little internet access. Yes I would recommend Luke. He did a very good job and was very careful. He left a few light marks as he didn't want to over-polish. Look for Desirable Valeting and he'll come out and have a look.

If you fancy a coffee in Sunny Swindon then drop me a PM.
