My experiences with encounters with the opposite sex. when I was a apprentice I was working at a collage I walk in to a room and there was this lady being painted with no clothes on at that time in my life I did not no this kind of thing went on I stood there in shock then turned rounded and walked out red faced.
My next one was a lady Aboat the same age as me and she just sat there with her dressing gown open winking.i just ignored her and carried on working.
Then there where two of us on this one very attractive lady walking from her bed room to bathroom several times doors open all the time and talking to us at first did not no where to look but then I thought if she is happy talking to us with no clothes on fine so we where talking to her.she then managed to get dressed in to a bikini to do some sun bathing out side ( no sun and not good weather) but stayed in this little bikini the rest of the day.
The most recent one was a little strange I had just turned up and was working in the airing cupboard one of those doors half and half the top half was open. the next thing I see is a naked girl Aboat 18 walk past with just a short t shirt on at this point I think she does not no I am hear so I shout down to her dad I will be down in a minute to turn it off no reply from the dad but the girl heard me with out a doubt.the next thing this girl is in front of me in the bathroom stroking her pet cat concerned that the cat may hurt its self on my tools.i reassured her that her cat should be ok and she just carried on talking to me for a while (I was a bit worried if her parents came up but how do you tell someone to leave a room in there own house).she eventually went in to her bed room but left her door open bang opposite where I was working tried not to pay much attention got the job finished.the strangest thing was when I went to the Kitchin to give the owners the invoice the girl was sitting opposite her mum still with just a short t shirt on.i just assume the family was in to some kind of naturism.but does give us some interesting story's .on all occasions I have told the wife as you never no.

Is this a euphemism? :rolleyes2:

You are changing my words tools not tool,

 

[Keefy]

We could do with this and the other similar thread being merged into a single 'Strange Encounters of The Plumbing Kind' or something.

 

[lame plumber]

You are changing my words tools not tool,

wrong so wrong, "stroking her cat" was the euphemism

The wired stuff was what you did to entertain yourself when alone on a first fix...
