Coffee granules in the sugar. Usually in places where there's a lot of mouse traps around. Strange coincidence that :skep:

Next doors Lion.............



I won't work in my street. Too handy for all those little bits and pieces 'while your here'. Next door neighbour caught me at half seven the other morning with a leaking toilet, torbeck valve passing, just needed a new diaphragm, 'sorry don't have one, that many different types, don't carry them all'. 6 months previous he had a full heating system installed. Think it was the same bloke that complained to the council that I was running a business from home.

The custard turning the tap off when I'm gas rating!!! Or the cooker on when I'm tightness testing! grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!:73:

 

[SimonG]

Stop taps that don't quite shut off combined with a cust that doesn't listen when working upstairs. 'I've left the kitchen tap open because your stop tap doesn't isolate 100%', then ten minutes later getting wet because 'somebody' turned the tap off.

Working on an outdoor combi in a force 10 gale at -2 and the cust is stood next to you with a nice warm cup of tea and never offered.........

Don't mention shower screens to me, my two (not paid for) empty tile adhesive tubs are now full of a 2000 x 500 x 10mm wet room screen that blew up in my hands. Grrrrrrrrr

I can't stand that. How can you stop them. I'd love to know. Times like that I wish I had no inhibitions about farting

Ask em for a cup of tea every 10 minutes, after the second cup they'll disappear.

Getting to a job only to be faced with a customer who knows "exactly what is wrong" and "how much the job will cost" coz they've been online to some obscure plumming forum talking with 'Diamondgeeza' or 'mrknowitall'....! lol
