"Roy Williams, 46, from East Grinstead, Sussex, was captured
urinating into a vase before pouring it into the water tank
at a house in Leatherhead, Surrey."

Apparently he told the court the sound of running water
made him suddenly need to urinate. He was unaware Surrey
Trading Standards were filming him, and of course also
caught him doing work unnecessary to fix the fault.

Mm, nice...

What is it with plumbers? I remember one of those 'tradesmen from hell'
programmes a couple of years ago when another one of them was caught on
camera doing just the same thing.

Maybe - though the BBC piece does report that Trading Standards were
repsonsible for the cameras rather than Poxy TV Programmes Ltd

(Claustrophobic) friend of mine moved into a house over the road. So I
get the job of carrying a few boxes up into the attic for him, and
stowing them up there alongside the CW tank.

While I'm up there, I discover a large and clearly ancient fossilised
turd. Just sat there on the plywood next to the tank. Wasn't pigeon,
cat or weasel, so I guess it had to be plumber!

Is it only plumbers who do this sort of thing?

If anyone says 'yes'? I don't believe them.

They get very excited when they find turds underground in York.

No, ground workers are similar.

Ther idea of luxury is to use the digger to scoop a hole in the ground
and then sit on the tines...

Roadies are similar too. A fiend who used to work for Marshalls
Amplification in the early 70's got a whole load of overlaoded speakers
in for repairs, with a giant roadie turd in each one, and '****ing ****'
stencilled over the band name...deep purple I think he said..
