Single again and alone on New Year's Eve, Jerry's only excitement is a messy DIY project. But when he calls an agency to arrange some help with the clean up, he's attracted by Sean's friendly, delightful telephone voice. That's just what Jerry expects from a conscientious personal services company.

That's what their advert said, wasn't it?

It's a while before he realises exactly what mistake he's made... but in the meantime, he and Sean have got a lot closer. Jerry's embarrassment turns swiftly to amusement and hope. Perhaps the New Year will bring him a whole new kind of personal service!
