tumble dryer delivery men
our previous one had broken down, they were here to take it away and connect up the new one. problem was it sat on top of our washing machine and they was able to reach behind to unplug the defective appliance.

''do you have a pair of scissors or a knife or somefink'' said one of the two extremely inbred looking delievery men.

it being 7 in the morning and i still being in quite a state having just gotten home half an hour earlier following a heavy night at turnmills, i said ''yeah sure'', and handed the man a pair of brass scissors. it not occuring to me that he might want them to actually cut the live cable. which he did.

que loud bang and all the lights in the house shorting out. i recall him apologising to me afterwards as i stared at him in utter disbelief, ears still ringing.

he was okay btw, luckily. i still have the brass scissors though with the the scorch marks still visible and a small area on the blade actually disintegrated/melted!
