Reminds me
of a "job" a couple of years ago
Got a call to clear a blocked toilet, told customer i would be there before lunch the next day.
10:30 a.m myself and apprentice knock on front door
"Who is it?????
Plumber
You're early
No, it's before lunch
Hang on a minute"
Rattling of chains (lots) and the front door opened by bloke who looks more camp than boy scout jamboree. Going through door notice only one security chain, oh well
Go into bathroom, bog is to the brim so decide on a bottle of strong drain cleaner (didn't seem to do much, bearing in mind this stuff will strip chrome)
Ask if there is an access to soil stack from another room, yes in kitchen cupboard comes reply.
Wander into lounge to see matress on floor, more chains than the cargo deck of a North Sea ferry and a **** off ***** the size of my forearm with clenched fist.......and blokes partner looking hurriedly dressed and as if he's been dragged through a hedge backwards
oh well whatever floats yer boat i suppose
Can't gain access to soil so send lad to van for plunger, then plunge bog to clear it.
Grab the shower hose to wash plunger and tidy up the bog only to find an attachment on the end obviously designed for clearing anal passages, needs must so use it........... then claim my £80 and leave. Once outside apprentice says WTF, and we both burst out laughing when he says "Glad you didn't send me on my own"
Odd world we live in
