lame plumber
So Mrs and 2 daughters poked off to do girlie day out together, so Lame on call decided to cut his hedge out back. It was only about 20 feet high on my side so popped into my flats garden to hack it down a bit as the garden is up a tier. Repaired my chain saw, big limbs in this beech hedge and had a happy afternoon revving away, successfully removed some 6 foot of hedge, BUT Lame failed to remember he has a shattered wrist. So now sat down one finger typing as the left wrist is basically throbbing as if I just hit it for 10 mins with a club hammer. it has swollen up a fair bit,so I am now on pain killers and single malt (off boat call roster).
Some how I have got to realize that the doc is telling the truth when he says slow down, re think how to go about lifes little chores. Anyhow did the hedge and sat down for the match.
So when a pain in the bum customer rang towards the end of the rugby, as his loo in his holiday flat had an issue, he seemed a bit put out when I informed him where he could go and stick his loo. After all 2 weeks ago he informed me my services to do boiler servicing etc was no longer needed as BG would guarentee to turn up within a couple of hours any day of the week, as I had kept his tenant waiting all of 4 hours last August bank holiday as the heating wasnt working!!!!!! silly pratt hadnt turned it on at the room stat!!!!!!
Anyhow after 6 years turning out all hours regularly for him, I had got the heave ho, apart from being needed for the odd plumbing job...... he didnt reckon on being told to get lost this Sunday when water was pouring into the lower flats............... bit of loyalty goes a long way in my books, dont expect to see me off and get favours 🙂
I wonder if the sore wrist had anything to do with my bad mood? Still, I wont be allowed to go on about the wrist as the Mrs has just rung from A&E, seems she has beggared her ankle doing horsey things................................ life is goodish I think ..............
Looking forward to her ladyships arrival back home, knowing sympathy isnt coming my way, best be nice to her though or life could become hellish 🙂
