Daft situations

[scaffman1]

Hi chaps,
Thought I'd start another thread for you. We've all had em,daft things that happen to us along the years,here's one that comes to mind.

Being in north Wales we regularly travel quite a distance to get to some jobs, this particular one was around sixty miles from the yard of the company I used to work for. the gaffer told us to go down the A470 and where to turn, "ye got that", then carried on with "just keep going for around a mile or so and there are traffic lights on the bridge that we were working on"," No probs " Went down the 470 turned off, reached the bridge and proceeded to unload the wagon (all ten ton of it) over the side of the wall and down the bank around thirty feet or so. The gaffer turned up about an hour or so later and was absolutely livid with us. There had been a car crash on the road the previous night. our bridge was about three hundred yards down the road.OH HOW WE LAUGHED.... not...:laugh::laugh:
