Odd job man desperate for work went around Darras Hall not having much luck until he came across a chap in his back garden pruning his roses.

"Any chance of a bit of work mister," he asks. The man replies "Oh yes you can take this big pot of bright green paint and give the back fence a coat"

A couple of hours he's finished and asks the chap "Anything else mister" the fellow asks how much paint is left and the odd job man tells him more than a half tin.

The man then tells him to go around to the front and paint the porch.

Another couple of hours and he's finished and takes the empty pot around the back and meets the chap.

"All done now mister but by the way, it was a Merc and not a Porsche"
