Nice one, not something you can just explain away lol! :lol:

I was told a story about 2 guys who used to work on our firm. One didnt like the other, who apparently was a useless div, but aside from that, he one day took it upon himself to open a fresh tub of his wall adhesive. He scooped out a fair lump, and took a number 2 in it. He took great care to put the scoop back and shape the top a bit to look realistic. The tub was then delivered to the div's plot, and the rest, I'll leave for you guys to work out :incazzato::yikes:

Bolter, LMFAO!! :lol::lol::lol:

That reminds me of when I sent my buddy off to scrounge an empty bucket for us..he was a green bean on the construction site so he didn't know the rule about "not opening closed buckets that had already been opened"...I heard him yell from down in the basement and figured he had found a treasure inside of a bucket. It turns out that he did :dizzy2: , but he told me there was some fiberglass insulation inside, with the smeary evidence on it that indicated someone was looking for a substitute for toilet paper. :yikes::yikes::yikes::yikes:

Whoever that anonomyous pooper was, I bet they are still itchy in the privates all these years later after using fiberglass insulation to dab the bombays!

i had a look at that phone yesterday...only down side according to thesales advisor was the battery runs out of juice quickly if you use the video and camera alot..he said 3hrs?mmmmm
Great phone Brian. It does get charged up most days. As long as you have a charger in the car you should be ok. I use mine for calls, customers names & addresses, calendar, internet (finding nearest Topps etc), email, tomtom and sometimes as an mp3 player. It's the 8g version and if it ever went wrong I would log onto ebay and buy another one. I tried the N96, but it was more like a plastic toy phone.

I think I have posted this before......but here goes

I used to live in Edinburgh, and had a rather old and rather knackered Beford Rascal, with a very dodgy head gasket.

I was on my way to a job (motorway)
I happened to glance at the temp gauge and noticed it was getting rather hot (again)
So I pulled over onto the hard shoulder, and had a smoke while I waited for the rad to cool.

It was then I realized that I didn't have any water :mad2: "Wot do I do"

I then had the bright idea (It seemed like it at the time) to Pee into rad to get me to the job, such is my dedication :smilewinkgrin:

So I lift the front seats (engine under seats for those who do not know) and remove radiator cap..........

After careful balancing over rad........and positioning myself so any passing plod could not notice wot I was doing, I began.

Had trouble with my aim at first, and didn't want to get any closer for fear of scalding to my man veg

As soon as the first drop of pee entered the rad, WHOOOSH.

Oh no.........rad still to hot.
A cloud the size of Chernoble, of Bright, Bright yellow steam belted out, and filled the van.......and then started to escape out of the open windows. The sight of rubber necking motorists made me grin, and think, "wot the hell is happening there?, some guy in a funny position, with yellow smoke everywhere" :mad2::mad2:

Anyway......after pee-ing for wot seemed like an age, (I was busting) I think I managed to get enough in there to fill a cup (egg cup :incazzato:)

It worked, It got me to the job, and the guy was so impressed with my determination (didn't go into details) he gave me a £20 tip :thumbsup:


I then broke down on the way home, but had a pee before leaving the customer :mad2:. So I had to call out the AA. He turned his nose up when he had to check the engine........the van stank for weeks.

Sold it not long after for spares......the guy who took it away was taking the pi££

:lol::lol:.
