One man handball deliveries

Wheel Nut:
I wouldn’t be touching Creosote now, it’s been banned for use by the public

Many years ago I was en route to deliver a tanker full of creosote to a place in Boston that treats telegraph poles. I was too late to tip that day so went and parked on a mates farm near Whaplode. He asked if he could have some creosote for himself and produced two 5litre containers. I stood on top of the tank and opened the foot valve after repeatedly warning him to be gentle with the bottom valve as 30 odd thousand litres would create quite a bit of pressure.

Obviously my warning fell on deaf ears as he crouched down behind it and fully opened the valve! The ensuing jet knocked him clean off his feet and knocked him about a further 12 feet across his yard. The sight of that, him completely black and shiny and screaming “it’s burning, it’s burning” caused enough laughter in me that a little bit of wee had come out before I managed to shut the foot valve. Oh happy days :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:
