There was small telephone system in a lingerie shop in Cardiffs city centre - it kept locking up and needed "switching on and off" every couple of weeks. We used to fight over who got the job, I usually won as I was the foreman - Oh did I mention the cpu was in the changing rooms.......took an hour each visit  :grin: :grin: :grin:

I worked for a company supplying/maintaining fruit machines, jukeboxes etc. A colleague "had" to look after a machine in a gentlemen's club. The fruit machine was next to the stairs coming off the stage where the pole was.........
