The Move Went Well

[theENIGMATRON]

So as some of you know.
I ended up moving home.

Am kicking myself for it now, As i do miss having my own place.
But i just have to think about the money am saving!!!

So am still living out of Boxs, but have some structure to it haha!!!

But you have to laugh at this!!! the last night in the flat i destroyed it!!!!

First off! i went down South last Tuesday to do some work onsite for a customer of ours.
Because when i got there at 9am, and never stopped till 5pm
The boss got me a expensive bottle of Red wine to say Thank you.

So Wednesday night (Thursday i was moving out) and Friday morning i was handing over the keys
i wanted a glass of red wine.
She bloody took the cork screw didnt she!!!! How do you open a bottle of red wine without one... all my tools where at the other place.

So i used my Thumb, Ever so carefully i pushed the cork into the bottle.
Not a drop spilled!! Perfect, so as i went to pour it into the glass, the cork floated back up the neck blocking it!!
NOW DONT ASK!!!! i have no idea why i done this.
I took a chop stick and done a very fast pock with it on the cork.
Red Wine projected out the bottle all over the Wall in the Kitchen!!
Cream wall!!
I washed with Hot, Cold, Salt water, White wine, and then turps.
All failed!!!
I had to give it 6 coats of paint before the marks disappeared.
so i never went to bed till 3am that day.

The Next day i removed all the screws from the wall!!!
I went to the bathroom and removed the one the mirror was on!!!

LMAO!!!!!!!!
As the screw come out! water Pissed out the hole!!! Yes water pissed out the hole!! WTF!!!!!!!!
The only way to sort it would be to turn off the stop clock, Put a hole in the wall. get a plumber to repair it and get a plaster it to repair the wall!!
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!

So i put the screw back in!! and kept a close eye on it for an hour or two! and looks like the screw went back into the pipe and filled the hole it made so no water was leaking!!!
I then painted over the screw to make it look like it was already there

Could not believe it!! I drilled the hole and everything and no water come out!!
Put a wall plug in, and it looks like the Screw pierces the hole in the pipe.

So Turned off the Stop Clock, and hoped for the best!!
Waiting for my deposit back now, and have been told i SHOULD get it back.
she said the only thing you might want to hold you breath for is if the landlords are local, they might want to have a look at the flat.
If so we will need to wait for them before releasing it!!!
I just hope to god!!!!!! they dont see the screw and unscrew it HAHA!!!!!!!

Anyway so thats the story!!
Moved back in with my mate and tip toeing around now!
Prob not going to look at moving untill the new year now

Jesus dude - I don't think you could script that calamity of misfortune. The wine incident is priceless - I've had many similar episode where you think you're nearly done and can just chill then you break something or spill something and chilling is pushed back several hours

The screw in the water pipe is just plain shitty bad luck. But hey - it could have been worse: it could have been screwed into the ringmain

Good to see you back on the forum though mate

God Damn that sounds like the script of a carry on movie or something out of Laurel and Hardy!
