    Re: The strangest thing you can find in a blocked pump

    When with Hoover pulled a bra-wire from the pump of a two year old Logic.

    Me: That’s yer problem, dear.

    Mrs: What’s that then?

    Me: A bra wire.

    Mrs: But I’ve not worn a bra for over 20 years!

    Me: (Slightly embarrassed and wishing to make light of the situation) Well, I suggest you take it up with your husband.

    The silence for the rest of the time I was in the house was deafening!

    Re my post above, I’ve just seen the post by kentish in the “embarrassed or what” thread! 😳

    Can’t believe it!

    Wonder if it was the same woman? 😆

    I remember clearing a pump wich was stubborn enough at the time due to scale & crap so you know got my hands well & truly into it – Only to be told afterwards that the ladies husband was incontinent & she had just washed the soiled (sh*tty) sheets when the pump got blocked – I felt like bleaching my hands !!!

    £3000 diamond ring, and she had just claimed off the insurance! Didn’t even offer me bung to keep my mouth shut.

    Official hat time.

    Interesting to read this thread particularly about needles. Years ago one of my fellow workmates took a customers washing out of the washer and managed to stab himself with a hypo. needle, fortunately the customer was a diabetic, he was lucky that they were not “smack heads” Company instruction from that day was to ask the customer to take the washing out or use a pair of pliers to do it. Makes you think don’t it?
