Our lass wanted one of the expandable hose pipes for her greenhouse, so I bought one…two days later…it’s spraying out water from two holes. I cut the pipe piece of metal tubing two jubilee clips …back to normal…next day, two more ( getting pissed off now) repairs it, working ok.
Happens again, fix it…..decide I’m taking it back……so it’s going back but can I repair it for to use to use it ….ok
Sat down the garden last night and one of sons came down and asked him to turn the water off on his way…the wife opened the hose to release the pressure and the hose came to life like a snake ..,Ruby with teeth like bayonets, lunged at it, shook it like a rat and let go when the water came out…..she owes me for six jubilee clips and labour.
That’s £24 I won’t get back. :evil: :laugh:

Funny thing is, our car occasionally gets a blast off the Karcher to take mud off but never used any cleaning or polishing agents on it and comes up like new every time sctatchinghead

Down the garden this morning with one of my sons and as we were talking he pointed out ratboy was crawling on his belly stalking a wood pigeon on the ground between two apple trees…all of a sudden my son banged an hammer on the incinerator bin and we had one relieved bird and one livid terrier…my son said he had to do it as clearing the mess up would be a pain in the arse…he was right :laugh: :laugh:

Pools need a new midfielder.
Can she tackle go past defenders n put good crosses in.

If yes then agent her to Rochdale for a better wage than Pools.
