I got a tip today, don't leave your pump to fill up your backpack in the back of the van,park the van and wander off to do 1 1/2 hrs trad work in town centre. Did have about 300l when I left it,and pump was pumping fresh air when I returned. At least I got home early today though!  ;D

I have a lovely old lady who always makes a effort to give my kids something every time I clean there windows. This year I had to do 2 trips from her front door and then cover all the boxes and bags up so no one would see them through out the day. Thought about opening mine early  ;D
Also got box a choc and £20.00

Tenner.
And I ain't declaring it.
I pay enough in tax to keep a family on benefits already.
They can kiss my hairy @rse.


Think you'll find you just declared it

years ago i used to work for the a government scheme fitting locks for the elderly.(help the aged)

1 xmas i fitted some locks in this flat and there was an old man who had an old deck chair in his lounge with no furniture or home comforts.i was chatting to him in his kitchen and he was snuggled around his gas cooker with a burner ring going on the top which was keeping him and his hands warm.

when i finished he said thank you and went to give me a £10 tip.
i gave it to him back and wished him a merry xmas.

he obviously didn't have a lot of money and a lot will probably say he might have had thousands stashed away,but if you see the conditions he was living in it would have tugged on your heart strings to.

i thought what a lovely old man.

bit off the topic but it jumped in my head and i thought id share it.
regards
