    That customers will randomly change the name of their house without telling anyone, so when I go to deliver a tree to somewhere I know I’ve been before, it’s suddenly not the name I’m looking for and I think I’m going senile.

    Also never get a cup of tea from one of those costa coffee machines in a garage..... they do not know what tea is.

    Any life lessons learned out there in your world so far today?

    Never set off for another campus without checking if your workshop slot has been cancelled!!! Just got into my cycling gear and was just over a mile away when my phone keeps ringing (hurray for Bluetooth helmet) and I get told that the session is cancelled because the tutor has something else planned for today!!! :mad::mad::mad::mad:

    Never take on another full central heating install where the house is full of furniture as I’ve spent most of the last 2 days moving furniture around than I have putting pipes in and it’s bloody cold I think they should call a gas engineer to sort it myself lol.

    Having a wisdom tooth out isn’t as bad as it sounds. The sound of the tooth cracking and breaking away wasn’t nice but less painful than I thought it would be.
    I’m still full of useless wisdom though it’s not made me any dummer.

    Don’t spend all day filling a road tanker with water to hydro test it let the inspector pass it off then to notice there is a welded bracket missing off it.

    Might get a couple of small scars in the process but I’m sure they’d never notice...

    I was too busy thinking I’d lost me marbles or had been leaving trees at the wrong house for the last few years; along the lines of “I’m sure this was Keepers Cottage but it appears to be called Howe Farm”! :rolleyes:
