    Yes I know it’s a crap theory.
    I just hate it when that happens, frequently on planes and you arrive at your meeting with yoghurt on your tie and the contents of one of those mini milk tubs on your trouser leg

    Your theory may be sound.

    The trick is to open it away from you, so the splurts of gunk fire away from you, not on you.

      I'm missing the other symptoms, you know the ones about being miserable, scots and a twat.

      Thanks though.

        Ah 7th floor, is that sea level?

        I used to wind new contractors up and tell them if the alarm bell sounds it means the dykes have given way and you must run upstairs to the roof and get into the lifeboat.

          as you are a professional tester you should test this theory out.

            Most people on here would tell CUK about it in excruciating detail and then, when somebody suggested seeing a doctor about fifty posts into the thread, start another thread (with poll) to find out if they ought to
