On my first day, the sparks I was working with, sent me from the works down to the stores to get the starting handle for the generator, much to the amusement of the lads at the stores. By the time they has finished taking the p!ss out of me, I had seen left-handed screwdrivers and replacement bubbles for spirit levels, had a long wait and missed bait time. So in the afternoon, when they needed a draw-wire, I refused to go for it because there was no such thing….lol.

i can even recall things from childhood as if they only happened yesterday. it's what happened yesterday that's the problem.
