Fridge troubles

[Gary Peacock]

Well this-

 

 

Needs to go on-

 

 

And so far we have got it to-

 

 

And I daren't watch anymore for the minute!

Those guys look like they know what they're doing - as opposed to the two people who 'helped' me get my Morso Panther 110kg stove onboard.

 

It came on its own mini-pallet inside a box, but what none of us realised was that it had to stay upright. We tipped it over to get it through the stern doors and down the steps, with me standing underneath bearing the weight. Suddenly the box was a light as a feater as the stove came crashing through the cardboard and over my shoulder! Luckily it missed my foot and landed upside down on a piece of thick expanded polystyrene packaging from something else that just happened to be lying on the floor.

 

Amazingly there was no damage and we all just stood and looked at each other a bit startled. I suppose that was one way to get it onboard and unpacked - what a bunch of clowns!

Blimey - that's going to take some ballasting to keep the boat level!

I'm in the removals business and moved numerous of these monsters, they are a real pain as standard house doorways are not quite wide enough. Sometimes you can get away with taking just the handles off, but usually the doors have to be removed which isn't as difficult as it seems but still a drag. I've never come across one of these that the doors can't be removed yet, so if it's not in, the doors will come off.

Er, Gary...

 

Who decided when fixtures and fittings went in?

 

Any objection to cutting a bleedin' great 'ole in the roof? I'll lend you a tin opener...

[RLWP]

All together now,

 

"Alright said Fred...."

We was getting nowhere, and so - we - had a cup of tea

Ouch - good job you have a steel boat. Could have gone straight through a GRP!

And Gary had a think and he said he thought we ought

To take off both the handles

But Fred 'e dropped one on 'is sandals

'Ealth and safety bloke appeared

Carted 'im off by 'is ear

 

"Oh right!" said Fred

Should have worn me steelies

Toes and fridge, together- that's a big no-no!"

 

Came back later

Fridge was sitting in a crater

Gary frantically on the phone

 

So Fred said "let's have another cup of tea"

And then we went home....
