    That's not quite as daft as it seems. Plenty of cabriolet cars have air-con.

    A family member who shall remain nameless was getting frustrated their new games console wasn't working, I asked if they had checked the socket wasn't switched off at the wall and they told me it didn't need to be plugged in as it was wireless...

    in a shop I was asked about a bulb (lamp). "Is it called a pygmy or a dwarf?". I explained it was a pygmy. Then confirmed it about another four times in this 10 munite conversation. She walked outside and exclaimed "You were right Mavis, it is a dwarf!" . Chuckle

    Like a patio heater in reverse. Many pubs have those in their beer gardens and smokers sheds nowadays, so I'd guess it's only a matter of time before they start adding air con too.

    I fitted a kitchen with new lighting, when I had finished the job the customer pointed at the end panel of a cabinet saying had marks on it, I said “It’s a shadow” and turned the cabinet lights off removing the shadow. “I’m not having” that said the customer.


    Another customer told me I hadn’t installed the fluorescent lights correctly because they flickered and did not come on immediately, I said that’s what fluorescent lights do, again I heard the words “ I’m not having that”.
