how many men does it take to fit a sink

Keys were left in a very safe place,,if i tell you i might be burgled,,and at 8 this morning a squad let themselves in,,2 plumbers 2 electricians,,a project manager,,was i there in my emma bridgewater pinny,with freshly brewed coffee and croisants,,was i he99..oops heck as like no i was in my bed,,feeling rather sorry for myself,,it had been a bizzare night,,nightmares and bogey men had filled my head,,i had hardly slept and then when i finaly thought i could catch a few winks,,auf weiderstein turned up,i could hear them bang crash wallop,,and that was only the turning of the sun newspapers pages,,real radio blaring,,have they never heard of radio 4,,or at least radio 2,,and the constant ringing of their mobiles as they walk away from MY job to discuss world events,,, i hid further into the downie maintaing my now famous foetal position and decided if i was realy quiet i could maybe stay there untill at least lunch,,but no was that dullcit tone screeching up the stairs realy for me,,HEY MRS MITCHELL YOU UP THERE,,god almighty i thought at one stage he was coming to find out,,so there i was in best dressing gown,,well only realy, bounding down the stairs,,with my best Auddrey from ,to the manor born voice,,yes young man may i help you,,its just do you know youve got a split pipe mrs,,i felt my knees go ,more expence,,OH REALY PRAY DO SHOW,,and there it was, a split right down the big pipe as he so rightly said,,aagh i said trying to sound knowingly,,you cant let them see your fear or the price goes up,,well my good man what shall we do about this,,he was eyeing me strangely at this stage,,i know my dressing gown isnt Dior or even Gucci but it is big and comfy and is Colins and i like wearing it, it keeps me safe.he prattled on about u bends and pipes and the rest and i ooed and aaahhed and said,,well carry on then and retired to the kitchen to make a cup of tea,,passing the mirror i looked up to see this strange woman with bed head hair with two sets of glasses perched on her head,,two ,god almighty i must have fallen asleep with one pair on and when i ran down to see him had grabbed another pair and plonked them on my bonk too,,no wonder i was being given funny looks,,oh well it might start a trend,,the nearly demented housewife look,,actualy i think it looked quite fetching and on pouring tea wandered back passed them with nose in the air with my two specs proudly in my hair,,,
