I do hope that was an ashtray and not an urn that I have smashed
I am doing a rewire in a rather unsavoury house and whilst pulling in the
gas bonding the cable hit the mantelpiece. The mantelpiece was not fastened down and came crashing to the floor smashing what looked like an urn. -- Adam |

Blame the apprentice and tell him to clean the ash up - you could also use it for filling in the few holes that you make when you refit the mantelpiece. |

Trouble is of course, the working area seems to have to include areas
larger than anticipated by the sound of it, who has mantle pieces not fixed down? Brian -- From the Sofa of Brian Gaff Reply address is active "Mr Pounder" wrote in message ...

He is a hoarder and he has mental health problems. However for the work he is having done he has cleared out a lot of stuff that he had been hoarding and today the council took it away. They also took away the boxes with all his kitchen equipment in them that he had moved outside for the rewire. -- Adam |
