going back a few years...
one of the wife's friends lived a couple of doors down from us. When she had the phone installed,she was round straight away to give us her number.
A couple of days later we had a BT worker in the street doing something at the top of a telegraph pole..
I couldn't resist..
I rang her up and when she answered I hesitated and sounded baffled
I told her I was the BT switchboard and made out I was calling one of our workers in the area that was doing line repairs.I convinced her that the worker must have wired the pole wrong and that why I had got her instead of him.So I asked her if she could nip out and tell the guy to change the connections back as I couldnt contact him now and if he left it would be at least a week before someone else would be sent out to fix the problem.
She was out like a shot to tell this guy he had done it wrong..
Poor guy must have thought she was the local nutter because he knew he hadn't done anything wrong.
after about 10 minutes of ranting at this guy she finally noticed me in the front room window pee'ing myself laughing...she still hasn't forgiven me
