This Could Be Rotterdam Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 17 minutes ago, Genie said: All washed and dressed now (me and the wife), kids are incredibly sleepy today for some reason. Off out now for tapas at the place down the road with Pete and Sarah from Essex. Kids wouldn't have liked it anyway. For some reason? Would that be the bottle of calpol taking effect? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 been working in stafford and went to the pub for one at dinner, 6 pints later we come out at 3 [emoji3] the landlord was a villa fan so that was me nattering for 2 hours. went back to the job to collect the van and the site manager there whos a jumped up scouse clearing in the woods who supports liverpool and hates coppers because of hillsborough said what about my **** roof? **** that mate we've been drinking and talking about villa, and off we went. And we wonder why builders have a bad reputation I hope you pointed out that you've recently done your CSCS card and can't go back on site after drinking... I once did a school in willenhall, the football club gave us their car park, and their pub... We had to turf the ground workers out of there every other day, it was about 6 years ago, they still got paid their wages in an envelope in a pub on a Friday afternoon That's where I met Ivor Linton, he was a sparky, brought his medals in to site to show me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea why you're proud of that. Come on man, you're paid to do a job. Don't get pissed then go back onto a building site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
