My neighbour asked to borrow my ladders to put his Xmas lights up. I'm clearing stuff up in my garage and take a peek at him climbing the ladder. He was bricking it and I couldn't allow him to carry on. He even had the ladder the wrong way round :confused:. I took over from him and they gave me a bottle of champagne as a thank you :thumbs:

It could be a nice little sideline to offer your customers :cool:

 
Most ppl brick themselves climbing ladders but they do it just to stop their missus nagging them.:rolleyes:

 
Years ago working for the man , we cleaned 3/4 pubs in the morning each day and around this time of year we put up loads of lights for landlords and got paid a shed load in tips, has anyone else noticed tips are rubbish nowadays /emoticons/sad.png
