Im ashamed of myself!

Spardo:
And no-one’s even mentioned hi-jacking yet.
Pretty woman, flat tyre, classic ruse.
I remember many years ago one of Plackett’s drivers stopped to help a woman on the M1 in the middle of the night and when she wrote a very nice letter of commendation and appreciation to the MD - he was sacked!

Salut, David.

this was a common ploy used in Romania. A staged accident or a puncture or even a bloke laid at the roadside. if you stopped there were 20 other blokes waiting to nick your lorry and load.

As for changing wheels on a driving test, the health and safety bods would have a field day. it could never happen

It truly amazes me how many motorists we see on the side of the road waiting for the auto associations to turn up…and all for the sake of a wheel change…i actually stopped for one to be told i dont have a spare wheel…should be law…i just walked away in disgust and never said a word.

And as for the washing machine !!..how long does it take you to load the machine through those little drawers…took me ages…and they came out as if they had never been washed…

That’s because the washing is meant to go in through the big hole in the front Bob and the washing powder is meant to go in the drawer :unamused: :smiling_imp: . I can just see it now, the washing powder drawer stuffed full with Bob’s sweaty socks and wabs :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
