Here's one made me giggle today. Our next door neighbour and her fella payed me a visit at work today (having their car washed at valeters next door and wanted to get out of the cold). Anyway it turns out that he used to own the "car" that I'm transforming into the Dragon with the help of a 2.9 Cosworth V6. Here comes the funny bit, he says " I've got a motor at home that'll skin 'n' heel that!". Me " what's that then?". Him " a 2 litre Montego Turbo, quick as fook!" When I stopped laughing it was time for them to leave as their car was done but oh how I larfed:D :D :D .

Here's another one made me giggle. Last week we had customers in who only had to travel four hundred yards from the campsite nearby but it took them 40 minutes. He said "you're very difficult to find you know", me " did you print out the directions off our website as we advised you?". Him " oh yes". So I get into their motorhome to bring it into the workshop and his wife holds up the printed sheet of directions and says " is there a problem with your printer?". A bit non plussed by this I replied "no our printer works perfectly thanks", to which she replied " well we seem to be missing all the words down the right hand side of the page!". Me " but you printed that out on YOUR printer so if there's a problem its at your end", her " Oh...................I thought maybe you'd loaded the paper wrongly in your printer!". Me ":confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: !"

The really worrying thing is we see people like this almost daily!

That is a classic Davey :D

A while back, my brother in Shropshire lost his broadband connection, called up his service provider to report a fault.

The customer services advisor asked him to connect to the internet so as they coud diagnose the fault !!?? :confused: :rolleyes:

Being very computer savvy, he was not best pleased :D

This one had to be shared:

"A mother passing by her son's bedroom was astonished to see the bed

was nicely made, and everything was picked up. Then, she saw an

envelope, propped up prominently on the pillow.

It was addressed, 'Mum' With the worst premonition, she opened the

envelope and read the letter, with trembling hands.

'Dear, Mum.

It is with great regret and sorrow that I'm writing you. I had to

elope with my new girlfriend, because I wanted to avoid a scene

with Dad and you.

I've been finding real passion with Stacy, and she is so nice, but I

knew you would not approve of her, because of all her piercings, tattoos,

her tight Motorcycle clothes, and because she is so much older than I am.

But it's not only the passion, Mum. She's pregnant.

Stacy said that we will be very happy. She owns a trailer in the

woods, and has a stack of firewood for the whole winter.

We share a dream of having many more children.

Stacy has opened my eyes to the fact that marijuana doesn't really

hurt anyone. We'll be growing it for ourselves, and trading it with

the other people in the commune, for all the cocaine and ecstasy we want.

In the meantime, we'll pray that science will find a cure for AIDS,

so Stacy can get better. She sure deserves it!!

Don't worry Mum, I'm 15, and I know how to take care of myself.

Someday, I'm sure we'll be back to visit, so you can get to know your

many grandchildren.


Love, your son, Nicholas.



"P.S. Mum, none of the above is true. I'm over at Jason's house.

I just wanted to remind you that there are worse things in life than

the school report that's on my desk"



I love you!

Call when it is safe for me to come home."

That is a classic Andy :D

Sooo reminds me of our eldest.

He used to pick up a bunch of flowers from the stall at the top of our lane & give them to his mum before the letter from the school :)

One day he came home with a bunch of Rhubarb !!?? His mum asked him what was the Rhubarb for, he said " There was not any flowers on the stand " Then he gave her the letter :D

Junior was smarter, he just used to throw the letters away " What letter " :rolleyes:
