I have never laughed so hard in my life
Reminds me of when I was in the motor trade as an apprentice, I got caught for all the usual tricks.
The mechanic I used to work with used to work at the old Lagonda works in Staines, and he told this tale......
The apprentice was fed up with getting caught with all the usual gags..
Left-handed hammers
Long weights etc etc...
One day he was sent to the stores for a bucketfull of 3/8" holes.
Off he went, drew a brand new galvanized bucket from the stores, and took it down to the drill shop..........you can guess the rest.
His mechanic didn't talk to him all morning.

I was behind the bar in my pub one lunchtime when the phone (landline) rang:-

Me: "Hello, Granell Arms"

Caller: "Nick, where are you?"

I never let him live it down!!!
