Very Funny Story at JNB ORTIA today

There is generally a great deal of moaning and negativity on this forum, so i just had to relate this rather ammusing little incident that happened at OR Tambo today.
We were parked on the charlie ramp today and i saw the fuel truck arrive, but some time later the fuel still was not being pumped on board.
Next the refueller jumps on board and explains that he has tried everything but the fuel just wont pump. I sent my FO out to have a look and see if there was anything obviously wrong on our fuelling panel and she came back into the aircraft laughing her socks off.
The refueller had attached his truck to the fuel point in the ground, but had not attached the pipe to the aircraft, so EISH all our problems were solved! I enjoyed the giggle!
