Now is this bad luck or what!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[corby_brewer]

Well it just goes to show that the old saying that bad luck comes in 3's is true.

Bad luck number 1 -
5 weeks ago Mrs Siviter decided that she wanted a light fitting changed in the living room, so me being the perfect husband decided to change it. Well that lead to the wireing in the house being condemed and me forking out £1600 to get the house re-wired.

Bad luck number 2 -
Mrs Siviter decided that after getting the house re-wired that we should re decorate the whole house, so me being the perfect husband decided to start stripping all the old wall paper throughout the house, which lead to finding that all the rooms in the house needed re-plastering at a cost of £1000.

Bad luck number 3 -

now this was at 6pm tonight, Mrs Siviter decided that the floorbordes on the landing needed to be replaced at a cost of £100, so again me being the perfect husband decided to replace them. But unfortunatly, the very last nail which i hammered in just happend to go straight through a water pipe. so god knows how much this one is gong to cost me.

When I rewired our house (A very long time ago) I was lifting a floorboard in one of the upstairs rooms and hit a pipe . . . . A Gas Pipe . . . And in front of it was an electrical cable that had been well and truly chewed by the jigsaw blade that I was using at the time. . . . Luckily we still have a house

I really feel for you though . . .Still you should get lots of kudos for brewing now though

 

so me being the perfect husband

Ever thought that if you were imperfect like me, you wouldn't have the bad luck?

God dave bad luck what you done shot a robin

I had that with my shower. A tile needed replacing, and when I pulled it off, most of the wall came with it cos the water had got behind. Had to replace 3 walls in the end and ended up fitting a new room, as could not get matching tiles!

I did end up learning a load on joinery, building, electrics, plumbing and tiling though, but could have taken a course in each for the price it cost me (time and cash)!

Really feel sorry for ya.

One of my friends on facebook did that with his floorboard only a few days ago! He was 'fixing the floorboard which wasn't nailed down'
