Had a call at 5.30 this evening.
Lady wants lounge cleaned b4 xmas.
I said ok can do it on tuesday.
She says any chance of any sooner?
I said nope sorry !!!
She says, "Well my husband is coming out of hospital tomorrow and i would like to surprise him when he comes home".
So me a sucker for a sob story says the only chance she has got is 8pm this evening !!! (thinking i am doing the old girl a favour)
She says yes thats great my son will be here to let you in.
Cool.
I turn up at 8pm, Son answers door, Me making polite converation says I understand your dad is coming home tomorrow from hospital.
Son looks at me gone out!!!! He says no my dad works in london as a physio!!!
mmmmmmm ok i thought whatever.
Ten minutes later Mother arrives home from shopping. Thanks me so much for fitting her in etc etc.
Anyway 10 minutes later she comes in the room exclaiming "O blimey look whose just arrived home early to surprise me??? "
