    Went to a Beko today with reported fault of tripping the electrics. Was met by a less than intelligent lady in her 50s wearing a shell suit.
    She said it doesnt work so she had changed the plug. A quick inspection of the plug and i found live and neutral the wrong way round.
    She then came out with a belter, “My husband was so f*****g sick of it tripping the electrics that he taped and glued the lever thingy up”.
    She also didnt have any money as the man with the hooky ciggies had just been and she spent my money on them!!
    Made a note to never go back there.

    I once went to a house where the washing machine fuse had been by-passed with silver foil. I asked the woman if her and her husband got on 😉 Having run out of fuses I asked if she had a spare appliance I could take the fuse from, and both the sandwich maker and bedroom lamp she offered had silver foil wrapped round the fuse.
