Tell me me about it, I'm already enjoying the thought of roast beef and Yorkshire pudding with lashings of gravy.

Not a good day for an umpaloompa suit and face mask! Least the insulations gone

 

[RyanCheetham]

Today i am working on the new utility room and nursery room. I hate working at home as the mrs is always on my back about making any dust and mess

 

[GMES]

Ryan, just explain to her that you are simply making sure she a full list of domestic duties to perform as she should have.
I have it all the time, but have explained to her that this is why she has little feet to allow her to get closer to the sink and cooker!

 

[RyanCheetham]

Your logic is irrefutable, however with her pregnancy hormones she liable to megger my manhood if i was to offer her your reasoning lol

 

[Knobhead]

Work? Sunday? Are you mad?

Although in Dilb’s case it’s understandable.

It's the young ens Tony, they have no get up and go. If it was us we would be in the pub now having sorted the job.

 

[Knobhead]

The cheap beer doesn't start until 2, I'll hang fire for now. Then I’ll put some serious work in to enjoying myself.

All in one suit to protect from fibre glass dust/mouse droppings etc, if any gets on your clothes you can still breathe it in latter....not sure I'd wanna risk lung cancer! You'll know as soon as you cough for the first time while in there.

 

[Guest77]

I will be mowing the lawn, then having a BBQ for lunch and a nice relaxing day, then later I will water the plants in the garden.

 

[shanky887614]

Finished it actually.

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

And do you still have both of your testicles in a fully operational condition?
I don't think I'd get away with that

Cheap beer, £3.30 a pint (GK IPA) yesterday afternoon! Didn't stop us havin' a few though, topped off with the obligatory curry and cobras!

Tell her the reason woman are smaller is because evolution has made it easier for them to service a man xD

No teeth left after I bet

Yes mate because her reward is to to massage them for doing her chores on time :sifone:

 

[trev]

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

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.

I have connected a lot of switch fuse spurs, cooker switches and other accessories that have load and feed on them incorrectly.

 

[Guest77]

I find it very comical Camerabloke, hilarious in fact, some of his other videos are even funnier :devilish:

I never realised they had neons on them so you could find them easier in the dark neither.

Bugger knew I was getting the load and feed arse about!

Thank you kindly - if it gave you or anyone else a smile then it was worth making the post.

I have a similar story with my younger daughter.
She has two daughters, a two-year-old and a six-year-old. We get to keep them from time to time. Not all that often - it's a 200 mile round trip to pick them up. And another to take them back.

OK.We were to have them for a week.
"Dad, when you come to pick up the girls, could you look at our washing machine. It's making a banging noise."
Having had three kids myself, I know washing machines get heavy use and abuse. I have replaced almost every part on them. Except the electronics controls, the bit I ought to know most about. Pumps (coins left in pockets can really screw them up), main bearings, motor bearings, belts, motor brushes* solenoids.....yes, most people would have discarded them but I'm a Scot.

Anyway, off we went to get the little girls. And to look at the machine.
So, my daughter ran the machine to demonstrate the problem. And sure enough, it made a banging noise. Quite loud during spin cycles.

"What do you think?" she asked.
I couldn't resist.
"You're right. It's making a banging noise."
"DAD !!"

OK. I looked at it and found the problem. The drum has concrete weights, at least that's what they look like, around the drum to help balance uneven loads. One was loose and rattling up against the drum. A couple of turns to tighten up the fixing bolts. Job done

Another nice meal. Then back on the road with the chatterboxes.

*A story for another day perhaps.

A tory MP was found dead like that once, can't recall his name now but he was also hanging from a light at the time, apparently he tried to take it to the point where pleasure is at it's maximum for that kind of weirdo, he didn't make it though, he died with an orange in his mouth wearing stockings and suspenders and had a cucumber in his knickers.
