    This really happened to me a few days ago so not a story as such but fact . youll probably guess the end before i get there but here goes .Went out to a local garden centre/ restaurant who i do a fair bit of work for to measure up a silver clio and to see what customer wanted on it ."I wont be here this afternoon Brian but the car will so just carry on and phone me when your finished and ill come down and square you up " says Paul the boss (one of the better payers like hens teeth ) I arrived at the yard at 2 as promised and and said to the secretary in the office "Just to make sure that is pauls silver clio in the yard isnt it , there is only one ? i said DOH !!! i dinny ken i suppose so she said . hmmm its got to be i thought there is only one .Just got one door done and in rolls Paul in his silver clio !!! He ended himself and i think ended in fits of laughter in the footwell !! he says the look on my face was a picture i remmember what i said "you got to be f*****g joking !!!! 😳 i made the escuse while he dealt with the owners who were quitely drinking tea in the restaurant wondering why someone was at there car which i found strange as if anyone was at my car id be right out .Anyway a kettle of boiling water and it was off . I suppose the moral is always look at the reg .

    Reminds me of the time I was flying in the RAF for Bomber command…low and behold did the navigator not have the map upside down and we bombed Birmingham instead of Dresden 😳 😕

    Don’t feel too down as its happened to me too before on a large lorry. It was a Saturday job as the lorry is out all week, they told me it would be in the yard so just get on with it. I’m half way through the first side with some large solid graphics when one of the drivers come up to me to find out why I’m putting the company branding on a hire vehicle 😮 turns out they hired a lorry as they were so busy and it just so happened to be exactly the same as the one I was suppose to 👿

    So don’t feel too bad. :lol1:
