Nick has branched out into construction
« on: July 12, 2007, 09:03:36 AM »
Shamelessly lifted from 'somewhere else' this image made me think that perhaps there is a 'Nick's Construction - no job too small' company been started. Have to say, it did make me chuckle!!



Allegedly, it happened in Manchester - but it could equally well have been Scallypool!

Well I'm sorry MG, but I've stared at that piccy for a couple of minutes, and I can't see anything out of the ordinary. confused:
Just a pair of builders bums puttin' some bollards up. So?
Do I need specsavers, or can anyone enlighten me as to what I'm obviously not seeing? noooo:

Surely as this is Nick it would be demolition instead of construction?  point:

I get this - feeling - call it an instinct if you will,  But I believe a demolition job is the next item on their agenda.

Either that, or a very cheap van for sale will appear in the evening's rag....   ;)

I tell you lot...unashamedly...that I was so bloody upset for NOT seeing the obvious, that i just called the WHOLE GROWLER family in to suss it out.

The so called 'not so bright' GROWLER junior spotted it immediately, albeit the 'wrong way 'round...."errr, how did they get the van IN?" lol:

I feel fractionally better now. ::)

Who? Me? Don't think so! Any road up, I just put it up for a bit of a laugh like - and, FWIW, I didn't spot the photoshopping either - though it's very obvious once it's pointed out  redface:

That said, in my defence I have known some very thick builders! (or should that be 'tick'  ;))
