Well todays peeve was me  .  After a refuel  I forgot to put the oil filler cap back on my much loved 044 .

I,m blaming the customer as he was chatting  bull .

Got a friend going round to power wash his steps . Hope he takes out a gnome or two as its one of those lovely gardens filled with tat  .

I think I really was born stupid for the number of filler cap failures I've had. I just fail to grasp the simple mantra of , cap comes off- cap goes back on. I can repeat it to myself a dozen times and at least once a month I'll see the shimmering trail with accompanying wet leg. .....Oooh eerrr mrs before anyone else says it.

It never seems to happen with the combi can, only the saws.I consider myself an intelligent man but something about doing the caps up just doesn't register.

I think gnomes are tw#ts too. Good for marking the drop zone.

Starting the engine on the jetter when the valve is still in the high pressure position, rather than return to tank, spraying water all over the inside of the van and all over me when I'm trying to turn the engine off. Guess what someone did today...?

Had a woman on a large housing estate come out to complain that we hadn't knocked on her door to let her know we would be working nearby.
Like the other 200 houses we didn't knock at.
Can't find the head wall banging emoji.

I find that “F off I’m too busy to waste my time talking to you!” normally works :D

 

yeah, I’ve not had a great day.
