A forum friend (aka Phil) was ment to go to the Elex show at Manchester today but couldn't to to ill heath (whimp), he printed out the tickets and passed me mine without a job title or job description on it, you get the actual badge when you sign in btw.
I rolled up with a couple of forum members and handed my ticket in, only to be produced with this
Yep I've been stitched up again. But I will get my own back Phil.
I had the opportunity to change it but I thought "No, I'm going to have a laugh with this." So away I went around the stalla buying a few things, looking at a few things and getting scanned every time. The look on the peoples faces was great when they read the badge around my neck, pmsl. Some of the stalls told their colleagues to come over and have a look, 4 of them took a photo to show their workmates and one woman took a video to post on YouTube! The fun I had with that badge, must do it again next year
. Oh I also got stopped by the two dolly birds (in white if you was there) and chatted to them for 5 mins. I've never seen sooooo many blokes jealous of me talking to two beautiful women lol.
To top it all off:- A friend of mine called Glen came along with his PAT tester so it could be calibrated on the cheap. He plugged it in, set it up and did a resistance test, everything was fine. THEN he hovered his finger over the full test button! Phil D and myself tried to stop him and said at the same time "dont press that b..." .... to late, he pressed it and sent a full load down to earth and the up front rcd tripped knocking out 6, yes I said six stands. Half a dozen stalls without light and sockets for their display went down really well, not. Me and Phil D left him there to face the music and we went off to look at another stall that had lighting and computer displays. Sorry Glen but your on your own you muppet. Funny as f**k.
Then to top the day off, whilst in a pub in the trafford center I got a phone call from the agency I've been working for the past 3 months. "Sorry but you and all the others are not needed so don't turn up on Monday". Very nice at 5:30 on a Friday but I've got other things in the pipeline so I won't lose any sleep.
