Builders

I've got some builders around. It's not like in the U.K.
though, where I'd generally have a tea guzzling laze with
whom I'd chat all day. Here there's like 3 guys working
solid. They don't talk, don't want tea or coffee.

Do you like builders? Are you a builder?

I'm getting a new front door, very posh looking, locks in
eight places, and won't have to pay for it.

Yet another great xltronic thread by RD.

I saw some program about german builders constructing this
flat pack house for this English couple, they really did
live up to the stereotype of efficiency, they all wore tool
belts and looked a bit like santas elves

If I had builders round I think it's safe to say I would
book myself into a hotel for the duration of the work.
Nothing upsets me more than having my effete inadequacy
exposed quite like it is when confronted by able, practical
men.

Is your octuple-locked door to keep people out, or you
in?!?!?!?????
Did you ever think about asking your
sinister, silent non-tea drinking jailers!?!?!?!?

To keep me in I suppose.

I didn't chose the door, the agency I rent the flat from
did. All tenants are getting a new door.

They're actually a nice bunch, these builders, but lord
please make it end soon!!

15 minutes

I don't know what other thread to put this in, and lord
knows it doesn't warrant its own thread, but, at work just
now, distractedly. I started singing to myself (in a low a
very voice, not out loud diva) the song "I'm horny, I'm
horny horny horny. So horny, I'm horny horny horny". And I
really made myself laugh.

I'll pop round your gaff and do it gratis. That is if you
can open your new door.

Easy jet to RD airport from where a train takes you straight
to the RD himself. No confusing commuting. A pleasant few
days where I'm not sick as a parrot trying to talk to you in
an Ibis lobby!
