Guilty :(

Did boom a double door lintel (concrete) to a load of Romanian 'builders' back in 2005 when we did a Safeway/Morrisons conversion. Big old spec jobbie. They saw me driving up the road and promptly 'did one' as I arrived, knowing the boom (full tilt) was 20 or so metres short, I waited till they'd nobbed off, jumped off me truck and shouldered it over to the opening.
As I got back on the truck , I looked over to see they were reappearing with bemused looks on theire faces .

That did make me lol.

Hp

:D :laugh: :laugh: :p
