Further adventures in photo-ops

From the pool report of the Prime Minister’s visit to a construction site this morning.

PM’s handed a nail gun, which he uses to nail in a window frame.

He says: “I’m not an expert on this,” as he grabs the gun.

He struggles with it at first, getting an initial shot into the wall but coming up empty on his next four attempts.

PM: “Oh. Misfire.”

He hands someone the gun, and that person tinkers with it and hands it back to Harper. The PM then succesfully fires three shots into the wall.

PM: “There we go. It’s all done. I have a second job.”
