We could get it to work Cherie but we had to keep switching it off then back on, it only happened a few days ago when the weather got really cold,seems there was a problem with some pipe aswell, I can bleed the radiators though

* Mark sees the 2 plumbers approaching the drive and quickly changes from This Morning to Sky SPorts news and puts his copy of Take a Break under a cushion and brings out a copy of What Car he stole from the dentists on the coffee table.

"Aye cum in lads, am jist up - i wiz ott for a sesh last night and my heeds nippin (reality he put on a facepack and had a bath with candles listening to Enya).

Aye the bogs up the stair ahd gee it a minute as av just laid a cable if ye get me. Did ye see the geme last nicht - ah thot thon goalie iwiz offside, did yoo no?"

"oh look st that burd on sky id split that in half, hahahahah"

The 2 plumbers make their excuses and go to work upstairs, exchanging glances with each other while Marc opens a red bull and necks it in one.


man of the people right enough

I'm naturally nosey, so I like to know exactly what tradesmen are doing and nod sagely at appropriate moments even if i havent got a blinking clue what they are on about.

I tend to offer them a cuppa and then leave them to it.

Hubby hovers...likes to see what’s what.
Our plumber always pops his head in the room roon to have a chat with me, same plumber for years.
Delivery drivers are the same, pop the stuff in the porch and give me a shout, well most of them do.
Cups of tea and biscuits are always on the go for all.
