Browning725:) Posted May 12, 2016 Report Share Posted May 12, 2016 As some of you know I run a company the refurbishes alloy wheels and some minor car detailing work. I was at a customers house detailing a Mercedes 4x4 and all was going very well, the wife of the client came home in her bmw and as usual they try to start a conversation to show a bit of interest in what's being done the there husbands cars. The wife then asked me the question ( who do you want to win the football this season ) I should have answered hmm not sure but instead I was feeling unite comfortable so I answered ( I don't mined really it's all **** to me just a load of over paid Nancy boys chasing after a piece of inflated pig bladder ) the wife just chuckled and went inside so I thought no more of it. Half hour later the family went out and left me to collect the money when finished from there gardener. So jobs done and the gardener appears and says to me( how many people like this to I work for ) I answer (what rich) he answers no ........... Proffessional footballers ........ ****** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShootingEgg Posted May 12, 2016 Report Share Posted May 12, 2016 Brilliant answer though.. I follow football but still think they are paid silly money... Also you might of gotten away with it if they think you knew thats what he did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbiep Posted May 12, 2016 Report Share Posted May 12, 2016 I know a couple of quite famous people - one being a singer who first came on the scene in the late 80s, and is still doing very well, performing at major festivals this summer. She doesn't take herself at all seriously. A lot of people who are famous don't. Another person (famous chef) we don't let near the BBQ at parties, joking that he'll burn everything !

ShootingEgg Posted May 12, 2016 Report Share Posted May 12, 2016 Hahaha ah its only millwall... Although the old merc garage in bristol next to ashton gate got smashed to bits every time the millwall vs city game was on, id be more worried about the fans to be fair...

bobt Posted May 12, 2016 Report Share Posted May 12, 2016 a mate of mine had a new next door neighbour, nice bloke if a bit quiet and trophy wife, after a few weeks we got to notice a few kids hanging about in the street asking him for autographs, it turns out he was the new star signing for Doncaster rovers, he wondered why we didnt know who he was, I had to explain that apart from 1966 I knew nothng about football.

Lord Geordie Posted May 12, 2016 Report Share Posted May 12, 2016 I remember once in the Town in Eldon Square, the place was packed and you couldn't move! I was trying to make my way through the crowds, and bumped into a chap! I said excuse me as an appology, and he asked if I wanted his autograph? I said no I just wanted to get @@@@@@@ past! His face was a picture! Loads of people were shocked! I didn't know the guy from adam! Some Newcastle united signing apparently? I don't, nor ever have cared about football!

TONY R Posted May 12, 2016 Report Share Posted May 12, 2016 (edited) The fact that she chuckled when you told the truth , probably indicates she agrees with everything you said and she should know after all.

JimLondon Posted May 12, 2016 Report Share Posted May 12, 2016 A few years back I was doing some part time work at the affordable art fair in battersea park, I was keeping the taxi queue in order. Anyway a well known Chelsea player walks straight to the front of the queue, sorry mate there's a queue "do you know who I am" he said "yes mate,your the bloke at the back of the queue". He stormed off to the sound of a cheering taxi queue ringing in hes ears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
