SPARTYKUS
Drilled through a pipe once, it was for the client from hell, everything was a nightmare, just wanted to finish it & get the chuff out, so me being the helpful me (even then), I noticed the fused spur surface mounted that fed the tardis-like shower cubicle was a bit loose.....
so.... I took it off, looked at the builders abominable effort and removed the half baked effort of a rawl plug and started to drill it better (in the same place!) so it fitted flush and tight.....
"Pssssssss��������������"
the muppet that had fitted the surface mounted patress had placed it right on top of the water pipe.
just shouted "wheres the stop cock" ran out to road, hatch up, scooped mud out at warp speed....got it off.
anyway as luck would have it I knew a wetpants (of course it was friday afternoon too) and he'd just finished and was at home .... Waiting to have his hair cut (not sure if thats cover for something else). He was there in 10 minutes and fixed it rigt and proper. Only wanted £20. Gave him £40!
The bloke who owned the house was by far the worst client I have ever had. I even considered jacking it in.
bl@@dy pipes! It was a trap that one!
