I was once asked by a lady `As I was here could I beat the rug on the washing line.`

 

Once got a job son lives in london and arranges me to do bits of garden work for his mum who lives in derby, when there one day he rings up and says whiles your there could you take the xmas tree inside for her and also she's got a new outside light needs fitting and oh are you able to hang some interior doors too? :001_rolleyes:

When we arrived to prune a 70ft high Ash tree, "How are you going to get up there? with scaffolding?".

 

When we pushed the Greenmech 19-28 down the customers driveway "where do you want to plug it in love?"

 

Comment from a 70 year old retired man wanting a large Eucalyptus dismantled "I was going to do it myself but I just don't have the time".

 

And the all time classic "theres some light getting in now!"

I did put the xmas tree in and got my brother to do the outside light, as she did always go to Birds and fetch an apple pie when she knew we were going :thumbup:

Worst I had was after if just dismantled a huge limb off an ash, overhanging a stream and borders/shrubs, all lowered/zip lined to the lawn nice and controlled. Chatting to the guy after and he comes out with "so are you a graduate who couldn't find a job or what?..." I was subbing at the time so couldn't say what I really wanted to. So politely explained that actually this was my trade that I had been doing for 10 years and walked away.
