It was bound to happen , right before Crimbo and all , first i overslept due to too much beer the night before , got out 2 hours late feeling like poop , into the second job and my pole gave up extending , it was totally gunked up , fine the day before , aaarrrggghhh , had to soldier on with it but it was hard work .
Got to 3 pm and counted my dosh , did unbelievably well under the circumstances and called it a day , on the way home had a near miss with some plum on a roundabout , had to brake that hard that my hose reel nearly came through the bulkhead , it did not fair too well at all , was too late to get a decent replacement so i had to do a bionic man and rebuild it .
Then it was time to sort the pole out , stripped it right down and cleaned it all with pure water , works like new again , i just cant see how so much dirt gets inside those things !
At least im all set for the morning now , nowt else can go wrong can it ?
