going from job to job is hard today because of, traffic, A job 3 miles away can take 15 mins or 45 mins and even longer if there's an accident, And when the house is a named house rather than a number, People dont realise how hard it is to find, For instance if its numbered, say 184 long lane, You're in long lane, you can see the odd numbers at one side and the even numbers opposite, so you look at the number where you are and you can guess/work out how far to go, bare in mind the traffic behind you get worked up when you slow down to see the numbers, its hard in daytime but fucking impossible at night, But when the address is, Dunroming Long lane, you've not got a scoobie how far or what side of the road its on,

no rocky, I had to go looking for a named house to do a little job ( siezed tap) and as I'm looking for the house i thought, what the fuck am i doing this for, So when i got home i said to myself, " thats fucking defo it now, no more," Its harder to do that stopping drinking, and thats a fact, and I need a drink now, so I'm having one, cheers all smiley-eatdrink009drinking

It’s all house names in cornwall absolute ball ache....I ask what car is on the drive to give me a clue
while I’m ranting my pet hate is a conversation like this
” hi it’s the boiler engineer will be with you in half hour “

my sat nav seems to have picked it up so yes

That's one of my pet hates too. They take 5 minutes to tell you how to get there after you've told them it's in your sat nav, haha, thought it was just me

My conversation goes something like this - "yes my satnav seems to have picked up your address" - says me whilst trying not to let them hear me furiously thumbing through the pages of my A to Z.
