When our regular car driver did not turn up, I hired an ‘acting
driver’ who is paid by the hours put in by him. It turned out to be the acting
driver is a plumber by profession and driving only part time. He also owns a
small machine shop.
He carries his rather large tool kit that contains the usual
pliers, wrenches, ball
plungers, spanners and other paraphernalia. I thought his spring catching mechanism was a
little out dated and showed my rustic knowledge.
He acknowledged my observation and said he intended to
replace the old ball plunger with a threaded, hand retractable spring plunger
though he doubted whether it will be ever used because, these days, such jobs
are carried out by machine operators engaged in organized home and industrial maintenance
sector.
