Was it a worth while find?

Scared the living day light out of me. I left in a hurry, but when she came out all she did was smile at me? The whole experience left me confused. For weeks, I was ''kicking myself'', thinking may be she was after something and I couldn't read the signs? What an idiot.

But then again, only last week a landlord who lives in Manchester asked that I go and provide CP12 for his flat (been doing it for past 3 yrs). The tenant knew I was coming well in advance. When I rang the door bell, she said: ''You'll have to wait a minute, I'm having a bath''.
Two minutes later, she opened the door, scantily draped in a towel. I couldn't disguise the gulp that followed. Then she went into the bedroom and came out a few minutes later with a see through low shirt and definately nothing below? Came and stood besides me asking what I was checking in cupboard housing gas meter? I left that job in a hurry
 
one bird had left a electric toothbrush complete with padding and a durex on it beside the bed obviously didnt want to pay for a rabbit

Fk me. Your slow. I'd have been like a dug wi a bone!
 
I've just remembered the weirdest find I actually encountered. It was the grottiest social housing house on the patch.

Anyway boiler upstairs in landing cupboard, go to test inlet pressure and stick boiler into service mode, nip into bathroom to run hot water and I am confronted by a set of anal beads lying in the sink? Luckily clean!

Women was a really odd character, must have forgot where she'd left them.

I've got a photo of them somewhere!

I took the case off a boiler once and found the blokes stash in there. Warned him to stop taking the case off the boiler and hide his stash somewhere a service engineer wouldn't find it. The next year I found it behind the gas meter.

Was at a place working on my own and got a transco guy to give me a hand to shift a bedside cabinet. As we moved it it started vibrating, we nearly peed ourselves laughing.

I'd rather not get involved. Personally, I think it's not worth the headache. So you get in there, then there is that dreaded phone call at midnight, her wanting you to come and service her!!! You having to take phone out of room to answer her calls, then ask her not to call you, etc. Couldn't deal with the stress.
As long as my missus is looking after me in that department, I have no excuse to look elsewhere.
And as for the girl with the see through shirt, that job turned out to be the fastest CP12 I have ever done. Probably around 12-15 mins max. Couldn't wait to get out of there

Where was this advice when I needed it??
 
Found large amount of plants in an attic once. Told customer I had to go in the attic to trace a pipe, she spluttered a few times then told me what to expect. As long as it doesn`t involve children or animals I don`t care what people do in their own home.
 
More like AA 4th emergency service battery.
Wondering what a pair of jump leads were doing under her side of the bed !

Naw, just waited for himself to move it to the arms first 🙂, had to delete the phone photos, kids spend too much time on my phone
 
Went to a house on Lower Earley Estate Reading, newly finished and sold to my mate.
In the loft was the biggest stash of copper pipe (20 bundles) and boxes of fittings. He gave it all to me - I reckon it was a subbies stash so when the site ran out of materials this outfit could
carry on with their stash rather than be laid off.
Fitted a water heater at a jewellers shop in basement - on the floor by the workbenches looked like sawdust but was in fact gold shavings. CHKing

The anal beads I found lying in a sink during a service. Very random.
