i had this chap (from latvia) call me yesterday morning whilst on the way to my fist job of the day.
explaining 'i no com now' 3 pm is the earliest, after 20 minutes on the phone trying to understand him giving me his address! (part of the address he gave turned out to be his name as the sat nav spat it out).
anyway, 3pm came and went as to be honest i forgot. he the called again for a further 17 minutes call 'you bink pimp wuv u, 10 munut wak only'?.
at 5 o'clock i turned up at door as he called yet again 'wa u thurk ya', 'i am outside your door.doh!.

get this,
he had a bath tap with one of those shower attachment in the middle. he explains, the hot water takes 2 hours to heat up in the morning and does not come out very fast out of the shower head so needs the pressure pumping. he has done one back home before and only took ten minutes to do but here he does not know what stuf to buy so wants me to do it for him...
he went into the lounge and came back with an electric shower to which he wants the hose of the bath tap shower connecting to the shower unit so it heated up the water and out the other side@~}'#''#.
so, after putting him straight how, where and how much we booked in for friday for the install.
this morning he calls again from my other number and a different advert for a price to fit a pump.......
told the wife to call him and cancel the install.!.

what a time waster, but i am well happy not doing it.lol.:hanged:
 
lol, i enjoyed that story. i didnt know if the spelling was bad or you were implying an accent!
 
OMG, that is a truely enjoyable story, never heard that before, make sure you send him a bill for call out.

and get somebody else to call him back from your phone and ask what he wanted done, chances are that he wants the hose from taps connected to shower.
