Staring at the rude boys
My mate Kenny runs an electrical firm and he's bagged a contract fixing up some old peoples' flats in Mid Sussex.
He asked me to give him a hand as I'm a bit useful, although I'm not qualified so we've got to keep schtum in case the council get wind of it.
It was all going well until we did some old codger's kitchen; he kept wittering on about all sorts of bollocks, claiming to have been a big cheese in the Surrey FA in the fifties and having run a pub (I reckon he's a bit senile tbh).
Anyway, he kept mithering me about being able to turn his fridge off so I thought I'd have a laugh and stick the socket behind it.
Lo and behold, the grumpy old sod went moaning to Ken and I ended up having to move it and I thought "I aint having this old git getting one over on me" so while he was on his laptop I opened his oven and stuck a screwdriver into the fan gubbins.
Then yesterday his dopey son came round to try and fix it (he couldn't).
Now, best of all, my brother, who runs a fly-by-night appliance repair outfit has persuaded him to part with £135 just to go and have a look and he should be able to double that when he rooks him for the parts as well.
