Title: The naked gardener strikes again
Post by: sunshine windows on June 11, 2015, 07:50:26 pm
So, one of my favourite customers, an 84 year old man called Pete, has a skin condition and was told by his doctor to get natural daylight/sun on it whenever possible.

So whenever it's warm enough to get his kit off and do the gardening, he strips off completely, warns his neighbour, who's also a lovely customer in her 80's and out the back he goes.

Last month he gave me a key to water his plants while he was on holiday and this month I still had it on me when I turned up. Knocked on the door, no answer, so let myself through the integral garage to go out the back.

Caught him stark bollock naked and he didn't bat an eyelid, just continued with his gardening. He didn't even bother covering up when I cleaned his internal kitchen window, which I always do for him. We always have a good natter when I've finished and he told me all about his holiday. Must have been there for half an hour, all the while he's sitting cross legged but with not a stitch on.

He's also got a picture of his late wife in the nude, hung on the kitchen wall, I didn't know where to look.

Old people, got to love 'em

Sherlock Gold reckons he's just an old "naturist".

"Skin condition" is his cover story for when he gets challenged about being "tackle out". Why would he have a piccy of his missus in the buff otherwise? And not put something on while you do his internal window?

Hmmmmm? Hmmmmm?

He's a right character.

He goes at least 6 Barnes coaches holidays a year and always has a great story to tell when he gets back.

The photo is to remind him of what a cracker his wife was, said she was up for anything (good girl)  ;D

When she sadly passed away about 6 years ago, I turned up to clean the windows only a couple of days later. He told me what had happened and when I gave my condolences and told him I'd miss his windows this time and leave him to it, he just said carry on as normal.

Hence one of my favourites  ;D

yes the sun does clear skin conditions up dramatically with some people. Psoriasis!
