Just got a call for an outside tap.

"Can you come and do it now?"

"I can do it in 2 weeks if that's okay?"

"That would be great!"

I've 2 2" multiblock gas valves in the shed that were submerged last year that I keep meaning to get round to cleaning and testing.

This one was a brass safety valve.

my last job was to change an inlet valve. design of toilet meant you had to take cistern off but bolts rusted to hell, no access to cut and pan concreted to floor. but it was a fluidmaster so i thought, 'just pull top off old one and plonk new one on'

tiniest disturbance of valve started leak on back nut underneath. no access to get to it. spent an hour fighting with bolts. got one off, the other - no chance.

so they need a new loo. turns out they wanted one and were pleased. so all's well...

Mine was service a 105e and fit a new stuffing box on the ht water side. P.O.P, charged more for stuffing box. And then beer aaaahhhhhhh.

In my minds eye. I don't ever see you with straight face.

Bloke in the yard said to me the other day "Why are you always smiling?"

"Because I have absolutely no idea what's going on!" I replied.

 

[Leo21]

Probably more to do with blood alchohol content.

Story of my LIFE a shed full to the brim if things that will come in handy ! Or need somthing doing to them ! But i will never get rid !

Bigger shed needed i think

 

[R1CKY]

Its a current shape Ford Transit, I can tell you that much!!

I've spent all day putting right a dodgy shower pump install. The cold feed was teed off the cylinder cold feed and the hot was teed of the cylinder vent pipe!! Relocated the pump to the airing cupboard, dedicated tank feed and surrey flange fitted! The customer is on his third pump in 18 months, fitted by a local plumber that I've had the displeasure of working on a lot of his previous work recently!

His face is perfectly symmetrical though!!
