Discuss Lovely job on sunday morning in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

Finished it actually.

Got there for 7:30 and finished around 11. Takes about 20mins or so to get home from there

In that case I apologise for my comment in #15.
Now get a beer down ya
 
And do you still have both of your testicles in a fully operational condition?
I don't think I'd get away with that :)

Yes mate because her reward is to to massage them for doing her chores on time :sifone:
 
Well, I have a beef curry chugging away in the slow cooker. The Sunday lunch joint of beef has been cooked very slowly last night, the roasties are going in the oven in about 8 minutes.
So my Sunday is going pretty damned well up to now.
Oh, I forgot, I just opened a beer too.
Jobs a goodun

nice im going to open a bottle of bishops finger soon, im starting to get into beer and ales now instead of lager
 
Just got a couple of light fittings to take down for my parents, although payment will be in the form of a Sunday dinner cooked by my mum.

Reminds me of a similar family tale....just different generations.
I got a call out of the blue from my son. Aged 32. He rarely calls and more often than not it's to take the ---- out of my decrepitude.....ok, onward.

"How would you like to come and have Sunday lunch with us?"
This was on a Thursday. On my office phone.
"That would be nice. Hang on. I'll just ask she who must be obeyed."

The she in question is just a couple of offices down the corridor, within shouting, or maybe bellowing distance.....
"Get your butt in here woman!"
Well, maybe not quite those words you understand or I wouldn't be alive to tell the tale........:)
"We've been invited to dinner by the wee boy."

After she picked herself up off the floor.....
"Delighted. When?
I asked.
"How about this Sunday?"
A bit short notice. But, of course, we accepted.
""Excellent. We'll be there."

"By the way dad, do you know anything about light dimmers?"
"Maybe."
Well, he knows perfectly well what my day job is.

OK. I (Mrs B) ordered up new parts - next day delivery.

Went. Did the job.
And were rewarded with a very, very nice lunch.
Irish stew. His Missus is Irish.

OK. Maybe that doesn't sound too exotic but.....
It was seasoned fillet steak and a gravy to die for.

Not a bad reward for less than ten minutes work to replace a dimmer switch.
 
Are you NickD in disguise by any chance, no offence meant you just write in the same manner???
 
Nice and mucky half day

What you guys got on today?
