Donkeys years ago we had an apprentice we called “The snitch”. He is qualified now and still works for the company. Worked with a new lad recently and he informed me that he had been working with “The snitch“. What’s really funny is, his wife and kids call him that as well…pml.

I went into a ironmongers with my son who wanted a lock for his bedroom door last week (he is 15)

He is now referred to as 'w@nklock' there- the missus found it hilarious.

Mine on a course I've been doing - "brains" (then again thats not hard given that most of them on that course struggle to count beyond ten without a calculator....)

Ginger guy on my course gets called Ed Sheeran...seriously spitting image...

The Mrs... "Bump", "Crash Test" (both as she is clumsy and falls over anything and everything...)

One lad I had working with me took up boxing to an extent where he did all the training and was well "into" it - He only had one fight however and after his defeat became known as Sugar Ray No Punch - He still goes to boxing for training and keeping fit but has never bothered with getting in the ring in anger any more hehe.....Tis a cruel world.

 

[Diddy]
