Geordie has never worn pyjamas or anything else since he was about 10 years old and realised the daftness of getting dressed-up to go to bed.

My late Mother used to buy me a pair every year in case I had to go into hospital. They were never worn.

Pleased to hear that fella.

Yep .... I've managed to get all this way down the highway of life (or more like the clarty back lane) without breaking any bones - apart from cracking a rib twice - and only once needed to sleep in a hospital bed and that was for only one night.

I'm seeing A LOT of the insides of hospitals just now though, but so far I've managed to escape permanent capture.
 
snap. ain't had a pair of pyjamas since i was 15. all i wear in bed is a smile.
 
*Sigh* Trolling will not be tolerated and please be aware that this is in the open forums so language and images language need to be family friendly.

Thanks.

Here I am!! I was just thinking if that is the best someone who is worth many groat can come up with, what chance do we mere mortals have? It's put me off botox for life. :death:
 
When me and 2 other apprentices left loads of dust sheets with the tenants son saying if she was bothered about carpets and furniture tell his mum to cover them up .we had a key started early next morning thinking she wasn't bothered we did full length chases all over the house of course he forgot to tell her . Not pleased when she came home.we cleaned up only to knock over a large tin of paint over the path on our way out .we have got better.
 
I got asked to disconnect a fuse board a d leave a temp site supply for building works going on in the house. Got there, spoke to the builder who didn't have a clue i was coming but said fair enough get on with it. All finished an on the way home i got a call from the original client asking why i hadnt been yet. Id written the address down wrong and disconnecged the wrong house! Purely coincidence there was building work going on in the other property. Luckily owners saw the funny side when i raced back to re install the fuseboard!
 
Nice one,joelypops, my mate did the exact same thing but substitute CU for 80 foot of manicured established privet from the road to the back of the garden. Ripped the lot out in an hour with the mini-digger.He got Oak Grove mixed up with Oak Road....remedial work went on for months...
 
Jumping out of a scissor lift the wrong way with a high vis coat on. It got caught so I was left there hanging up like a coat on a hanger with me still in it!
 
Lad I served my time with made a classic mistake he was told go the shop and get some bits and one guy said I'll have 20 Marlborough lites and if they don't have them get me something else instead.
The lad came back and said no Marlborough lites so as you said get me anything else here is a mars bar,
No joke he was that thick

Haha ........... that's a bit like me as a 15 year old apprentice. I had to go out & get the lads ciggies, fish & chips etc. anything & everything really.

One lad who was 23 and engaged to be married was a real tight fisted sod and always counted his change when I handed it over to him. He was so tight that on the odd occasion when he gave me a lift home he wanted my bus fare.

Anyway, one day he gave me a 10 shilling note and asked me to go to the barber shop around the corner (Half Moon Lane, Gateshead) and get him a packet of Durex.

Now, I was a young innocent lad and had never seen these things of myth and legend so was a bit apprehensive about going into the barber shop, but plucked-up the courage and entered.

The barber asked: "Yes?" and I said; "a packet of Durex please". He asked "Three shillings or three and ninepence?". I was stumped and bearing in mind the tightness of the bloke who wanted them I wanted to be sure I got this right so I asked; "What's the difference?"

The barber replied "Ninepence".
 
I was doing some work for a conservatory firm and quite a few clients had the work done while they were away,anyway this client at 86 arranges his to be done while they're abroad for a fortnight,all we need is a tap and a power supply says the boss,we'll get it up and send our spark when you come back,as he'll need access to the house.The lads go round dig up and lay footings.lads go back lay a slab and build dwarf walls.The following week they go back and erect the conservatory,all ok so far now all I have to do is wait for the guy to come back from holiday and nip round and wire it up.Monday morning comes and the phone rings and it's the customer ranting on about how we've done sod all and he ain't happy,boss is adamant job was done and he'd personally gone to number 68 to check quality of work! OOPS,someone made a major boob didn't they!
