'A plumber from Texas is having his business flooded with calls and threats after an picture of one of his old company vehicles appeared in the social media account posted by Islamist fighters in Syria.

The pictures, posted by Ansar al-Deen Front, show the black pick-up truck with a Mark-1 Plumbing and a link to the number of his business on the side door, whilst fighters blast an anti-aircraft from the back....

Mark Oberholtzer, who has owned and operated his business Mark-1 Plumbing in Texas City for the past 32 years confirmed to the Galveston Daily News that it was indeed his old truck, but was baffled as to how it could have ended up in Syria.

He said he traded the vehicle into a car dealership more than three years ago - he normally takes his branding off his cars, but didn't this time - something he is now regretting.'

Just goes to show that you never know where an old plumbing truck will show up......... or an old plumber, for that matter.

(I have several relatives who are plumbers.)
