Default just a daft thing that made me laugh

chatting to some of the mothers at school yesterday(snobby lot)

when the converstions of new cars came up.

One of the women said that her husband had just brought one of those trucks that everyone seems to be driving at the moment (think they are called utes). It has a flat thing that covers the boot.
Anyway, her husband finishes work after showing it off to all his work mates and lowers the tailgate on the back of this truck, puts in his tool box and drives home.

For anyone who doesnt know Sheffield is built on 7 hills.

He arrived home about a half hour later, walkes to the back of the truck pulls down the tailgate and couldn't see his toolbox.

He gets a tourch out of the front, turns it on and has a good look around and found it right at the back (near the seats). Having no idea how to get the flat top off he crawls in to get his box. Being quite a short bloke he practically dissapeared when some little monster (with good intentions) closes the tailgate with him and his toolbox inside!

Wife in the meantime is in the kitchen cooking the tea for the family, can see the truck outside but has no idea where hubby is. Thinking he has just gone to the shop she waits.

and waits


then she remembered the pub, might have gone in there for a quick drink.

By now it has been almost an hour and a half later, so she calles him on his mobile. No answer, thinking this was a bit weird she goes out to the truck (just to make sure) and phones him again.

upon hearing his phone ring from the back of the truck she thought it would be a good idea to bring the phone into the house incase another person heard it and broke in to the truck to get it.(bit stupid as i would have been more interested in the truck than some phone), so as she opened the tailgate, out pops the head of a rather peed off hubby, red in the face.

So she asked, what are you doing in there?

Dont ducking ask was his reply as he stormed into the house! Only later did she find out what had happened to him and the reason why he stormed into the house so quick was because he'd peed himself! waiting for someone to get him out!
