[joke] sky Hooks, Glass hammer etc

[timbo343]

We keep getting a select few kids in asking Do you have tartan paint for {teachername} and we keep no, but we could do with {InsertOneBack} though.

 

Now on the {InsertOneBack} we have the following but could do with some more:

Glass Hammer

Left handed screw driver

skirtingboard ladders

sky hooks

spirit level bubbles

Reversable drill to fill holes back in

rubber nails

long weight

left screws for left handed screw driver

tin of elbow grease

A metric adjustable spanner.

Well that's just silly, most of this can be easily obtained online.

Used to use the excuse that the reason for people's PCs running slow was that their hard drives were built in the southern hemisphere therefore spun the other way which windows & OS/2 didn't like..... No one laughed at that one either. Shame......

Done that many times. We have a lot of Dell printers too and I'm trying to find a way to do it on those before 01/04/2011, but that's another thread.
