This morning I did a job and left my trousers behind. Why? I hear you ask.
Because my first job was a factory office where shorts are not permitted and so I made that my first job and got there early before the heat of the day. I then got into my van (with aircon full on) and went to my first domestic (Mrs W. a nice lady in her late 60's) and started. (No one home)
It was so hot and a fairly big house that would take about half an hour so I got behind the tall hedge and quickly dropped my trousers and pulled on some shorts and put the removed trousers on the garden seat and carried on working.
Of course I forgot them and at the end of the day about 4pm I need to go and get them. Rather than just walk in to their garden I thought I'd better ring the bell first in the hope that no one was home and instead of Mrs W. coming to the door it's Mr. W.
Me: "Err um, I don't know how to put this but I've left my trousers here in the back garden ..."
I'm starting to over explain myself and he looks at me dead pan and says ...
"My wife been up to her old tricks?"
Me: "No, no, no, no I changed because it was hot and ..."
Him: Bursting into laughter "I'm pulling your leg old son!"
