Awkward moment

Adam from Adam's Painting

I still cringe as I remember a painting job I did a few years ago.

It was during my lunch break on the job, I had been texting the woman who owned the house I was redecorating, just clarifying a few things. While munching on sandwiches, I remembered that evening I was going to have a date with my beautiful wife. As I anticipated the evening with her, I conjured up a slightly suggestive text to let her know my feelings. But as soon as I pushed 'send' on my cell phone, I panicked, realising I had accidentally sent that intimate text to my client! I quickly sent her another one, apologizing profusely, explaining, "That last text was for my wife!" My client very understanding, but from that point on I could never quite look her in the eye! At least she knew I was very happily married, and she was happy with my painting work which is what really counts! Have you got a story more awkward than that? I'd love to hear any stories of your awkward moments on the job - or at home.

Hi everyone,

The city is gearing up for what will be the first major public gathering since lockdown when the Chiefs face off against the Blues on June 20.

Hamilton City Council general manager of venues, tourism and events Sean Murray predicted about 20,000 people would flock to FMG Stadium Waikato for the match.

Restaurants, bars and cafes are also fizzing after physical distancing rules were relaxed.

How are you finding alert level 1? And will you be in the stands come June 20?

Asking on behalf:

Would anybody be interested in adopting a farm/outdoor cat? A local business has a cat that was dumped a few years ago, they had him desexed and feed him twice a day but are moving on soon and need to find a new home for this boy. He is used to people but does not like to be touched, he would make an excellent mouse catcher but will need to be fed and have shelter provided. As he gets used to you he may become more friendly but this is not a given. He is estimated to be around 3 years old and is neutered. Please contact me for more information.
