Partially-sighted Tradesmen...
Posted: Thu May 25, 2006 3:59 am...just got back from Sainsbury's this morning on my bike, with a load of shopping in my trusty haversack...
Parked outside on the road is a big tradesman's van...
Details in big letters, on the side of the van.....
"Curtain and blind fitter"...
...!
So, I approach the driver, as is my wont, and ask the magic question....
"How does a blind fitter manage to install new curtains when he can't see what he is doing?"
The chap looks at me with a blank expression upon his chubby face, as you would expect from someone who obviously did not put in a lot of thought into it, before getting a painter to paint the above mentioned words on the side of his nice shiny new van....
...!
Is it just me, who always sees the funny/daft side of things......?
Paul....ya gotta larf...
