out of the blue

This guy contacted me from my youtube channel, he wanted to know, was I the same tomplum he worked with in 1993, as it happened it was and we met up tonight for a very enjoyable catch-up.,
The episode he remembers me most was for, The time we were working in Leicester and we'd booked in some digs, Because the back doors to his van were unlockable he wanted the van backed up to the building as close as can be, So I watched the back of the van while he reversed it in, So I'm waving him in and saying C'mon,,c'mon c'mon and the next thing was an almighty crash of glass because, The ladder on his roof rack was protruding further than the van and it had gone through a large window,, , Ouch,,, that cost us some money

How lovely to have a reunion through You Tube. I use a totally different username on there so I can never be traced from that source. I don't have anything to hide, but I just don't want the whole world to know my name as that's my business.

The incident with the van was poor judgement, but it was an accident after all.

an incidence in life that is funny now but not then

I can well imagine, Tom. I bet you were both mortified to see what you'd done. What did the owner of the premises say?

He was very understanding and we paid the access to his insurance which was about £30 at the time, probably a days wage at the time , we made it up with the scrap money from the job we were on,

Good. I'm glad you didn't get any grief from him. It was an easy mistake to make.
