Title: Hard or what
Post by: fenman on February 18, 2011, 12:33:48 pm
Nipped to the bank today between jobs.As I walked past an Indian restaurant saw a carpet cleaner bringing out his hoses and he was wearing shorts. :o
Now I wear shorts from June to September but it was 6 degrees today.
When I came out of the bank his van was gone and as it was not sign written I have no idea who it was but he must be an exiled northener putting us southern softies to shame. ;D

 I wear shorts all year round if you kneel down on a damp carpet what is worse damp pants or knees which are quick to dry.

I was a sub-postmaster a few years ago and the postmen used to have a bet on who could go the longest wearing shorts, a few went all year come rain, snow or sun, must have been bloody freezing somedays but they never showed it.

We were banned from wearing shorts for health & safety reasons.
