Dodgy builders.

Long story short.
I'm having a house I own completely renovated.
As I work away for long periods at a time, it's been over 3 months since I've been at the property.

I've got a bloke in sorting out all the work.
No complaints up until now, reasonably priced and reliable.
I had him send me a load of photographs to show me how all the work was progressing.
I was browsing through them when I noticed something unusual peeping around the doorframe in the background.

Now, I'm no expert but is that what I think it is?

A tree? I'm lost otherwise.

Looks like some weeds have sprouted since you left, should get a gardener in to take care of that.

dr.bollocko

Doesn't look like it to me bro.
...
Not that I'd know anything about that or anything...

WeeBushy

Do you think the the is a marijuana plant? (First thing that came into my head!)

Well don't worry, it's not.

galwayrush

I hope that's not the size of your stairs well.:eek:

I also see an image of the Virgin Mary on the wall.

Oh and if you look harder, looks like a bush growing in the next room.

The bright light should give it away.

Its not marijuana anyway, the electrics I wouldnt worry about for now, probably dead anyway, tell him to get a head over that door though unless theres a better support RSJ above it that we cant see.
If I though what you did I'd be looking forward to coming home for harvest time.

Tell him to get some loyalists to sort out the Romanianz. That ought to show 'em

Mr Benevolent

Have you ever seen that film "The Money Pit" with Tom Hanks and Shelley Long ?

Well, I got an e-mail back from the builder there.

Apparently he'd picked up a plant at the garden centre down the road, for his Ma.
With the weather being so hot he didn't want to leave it in the van because he thought that the heat might kill it.
So, he took it in and left it in the house while he worked.

Well that clears all that up then.
Just goes to show that you shouldn't jump to conclusions.:eek:

I mean seriously, look at it.

So his Ma is the stoner and not him?

Saibh

The builder wasn't dodgy after all, just the plant.

This thread has made my day

galwayrush

It's no way to treat a good plant, i thought they needed alternating darkness and very warm bright lights.......... only saying what i heard.............;)

galwayrush

Seriously OP, at least your builder has a back up plan for these recessionary times.:cool:

Or maybe he's lying and living in the house.

I was expecting some horror story that he got and left with your money or something but I read it and what do I see?

A fcuking plant poking around the corner?
