OP, some nut jobs out there alright. Think ive mentioned this before on here but i was doing a bathroom refit in a house for this old american cple. They kept coming upstairs and asked could i keep the noise down abit when i was ripping of the 25yr old tiles from a cement board in the bathroom. I was like WTF am i supposed to do to get them off! Anyway, after hammering away when installing new noggings for under teh wet tray, i hear the aul f**k*r rushing upstairs loud as f**k. I was like WTF does he want now into myself. Shouts that ive just put 2 holes through the ceiling in their downstairs small bathroom/kitchen. I told him i couldnt have because i wasnt working about these rooms. Are you calling me and my wife a liar is what i got! So off we go down stairs so they could show me the 2 holes and low and behold, there it was, 2 large spiders humping in the corner of the ceiling. The 2 blind fcukers thought these 2 spiders where 2 nails hammered through the ceiling! Jesus even thinking back to it now, i couldnt wait to GTF out of that place. Even when i had to drain the heating system down and fill up again to fit the towel rad, he had all rooms locked. I asked him could i get into them to drain them all thinking hed open the doors and leave me to it. NO!, he opened one room at a time, stood at the door while i went into do my work and closed the door again as soon as i left the room and onto the next lol. Swear to f**k, he was americian'ised alright lol. Proper loon!

I was clubbing loads at the time and not short of fun she was prob in her late forties me n me mate just looked at each other and said you'll have to move that luv or we can throw a dust sheet over you.?!!

i think i just peed a little reading that :risas:
 
me and ni were skimming a ceiling one morning two years ago. the home owner got her mum round to babysit us. the lady didn't speak a work of english and just pulled up a chair and sat there silently staring at us for the longest next two hours. radio was broke too. we couldn't look at each other or we'd have lost our s**t
 
Worked with a painter who claimed he'd gone to a job out in the sticks somewhere the guy left saying not to go in the kitchen dining area . But get on with the rest.
After hearing noises n calling out he finally opened the door to find a horse stabled in there :sorprendido3:

This is no joke and funnily enough, I was just thinking about it this morning when I seen a horse in the field near where I'm working. I used to have a pony in my das fields. 2010 it was minus 13 here on the west coast and that f**k**g nutjob of a father of mine brought the f**k**g pony into his cottage and let it stay in the main room because it was cold outside. There were sheds to put it in but this header brings it into the cottage with him. The cottage wasn't fully completed but still, proper Looney tune. Must be all that grass he's smoked through the years melted his head.

Lunatic wouldn't get a lookin when this header is about. Another one when he split from my ma, I let him stay in the house I was renting. Had a mouse in it and it was annoying the fcuk outa him. Instead of buying a mouse trap, this header(I'm even laughing now thinking back at this) he gets his air rifle and sits up waiting on it during the night and he's there like a sniper on the couch and killed the poor thing.

I'm telling ya, there's wiser eating grass out in them fields out in the fields behind my house.

Most of the old places in the hills here and no doubt many houses of old had the animals downstairs in winter , one you couldn't afford to lose them and secondly under floor heating :sisi:
