    Default How to save time on-site!

    NEVER secure the load in the back, it's only a short journey, you're a good driver and what could happen anyway.

    Hee hee. That happened to me once, not quite as spectacular. I had 20 litres of paint in the back, had to hit the brakes a bit at one point and the bloody thing tipped over. Next was "what's that smell? Smells like paint" $#%@!!

    Managed to scrape most of it back into the tin and hosed out the back of the car (a station wagon), no harm done.

    Paint now rides on the floor between the back and front seats.

    Lucky it wasn't enamel paint.

    I'll bet he's thankful he's only a painter and not the nightpan man!
    I may be weird, but I'm saving up to become eccentric.

    Come to think of it it's lucky it wasn't red, blood colour, paint. Can you imagine the look on peoples faces on seeing the crash!
