Tuffers you plonker

[Tuffers]

I guess we've all flooded our vans when filling our tanks, right? Well Tuffers took plonkery to a new level tonight. I dropped a torch in my tank :laugh:. I was filling my tank and I decided to turn on the torch which is magnetic and stuck to the roof above the fill hole to see how full the tank was. As I turned it on it plopped into the tank . Me panicking stuck my hand in the hole as quick as a flash, but in my haste I managed to knock it further into the tank and behind the furthest baffle. I'm now running round in circles trying to think how the hell I'm going to get the torch out. Meanwhile the torch is still shining brightly in the tank. Tuffers is in panic mode. I get hold of my CLX-4 with a brush on it and waffle it about in the tank. No joy, as the torch is round a corner. My hands are going numb by this stage and the bloody torch is still shining. Feck it, I come inside and light a ciggy. Smoke that and try again with the pole. I swirl it about and manage to drag it to me. Dunk hand in and fish it out. Panic over /emoticons/biggrin.png

Feel your pain mate, that would happen to me without doubt.

 

[Tuffers]

Learn from me guys, learn :rofl:

 

[Jimroot]

I do stuff like that every day so it's normal. A neon lit tank would be a cool van feature though...

thats one way to change over to hot water system, might take a few more torches to warm the water /emoticons/biggrin.png

 

[TolishAPurd]

At least its still on, that way you don't need another torch to find it. /emoticons/biggrin.png

How many rungs has that A frame got mate? Always fancied a small Aframe.

Funny you asked about the TDS Dave. It actually went down by 001 /emoticons/biggrin.png

Talking of things dropping in barrels, my mate has been using a trolley for years. One day he found a dead fish in one of them when he was cleaning a house. He blames me for it to this day :laugh:
