gabby Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 Wasn't there a song about summat like this, years ago? Starts with the line 'Oh dear, what can the matter be...?' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathom Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 Those are some of the cleanest toilets around though so she was quite lucky - had she been locked in the ones in Leeds bus station she might have been traumatised! It used to be my dream when I was a kid to get locked in somewhere like Boots or Smiths overnight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leipzig Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 Did her experience leave her a little flushed? No! it left her frustrated! She had pulled the chain repeatedly expecting the butler to appear but nothing! Might I suggest that her next holiday destination should be a small quaint little place off the A387 :hihi: Seriously, I admire the jovial way she handled the situation.

RiffRaff Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 I had a similar problem only last weekend - down in my cellar, soldering something-or-other. I heard my beloved open the cellar door and take the hoover out, just before she absent-mindedly turned the lights out. "Oy!" Nothing. "OY!!" Nothing. There am I, soldering iron in hand, pitch black. Workbench in front of me, not exactly tidy...bits of rag...sawdust...bits of plastic....therefore big problem putting the iron down. Risk putting the iron down, and stumble along the corridor, stagger upstairs to the light switch? Follow iron flex back to the plug, turn off, and wait for it to cool? Tricky - lots of cables, going underneath the bench.... "OY- YOU DEAF BUGGER!!" Nothing.... I heard the hoover rumbling across the floor above.... Ah-ha... Bang on cellar ceiling..... "OYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!" Nothing. I started to remember all those films where the blind heroine is desperately trying to avoid the axe murderer....she always escapes, but then again I've never seen one where she's holding a bloody hot soldering iron. Groped around to my side, and felt the vice...Managed to clamp the soldering iron pointing upwards in it, before wandering along the corridor, sleepwalk-style. Arms out, tiny steps. Bounced my way upstairs before eventually finding the light switch and door, just in time to hear the hoover being switched off.... And my beloved's comment after all this? "I hope you haven't made a mess down there..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
04jessops Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 That was a bit tough getting locked in the toilet. If I was to get locked in anywhere overnight I think a pub would be the best place Erm, what about a sweet shop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
