Think logically Sockster. Pissing on your hands will neutralise the smell.
Works for CS gas too, according to my football-violent friends, except that it doesn't.

I was on a train in France recently and after a heavy nights drinking I felt a little delicate to say the least, after I had used the toilet I noticed that the water level was quite high but not being used to the French system I flushed anyway... big mistake as it spilled all over the floor and sloshed to one side as the train took a bend, relieved that I didn't get wet feet I lathered up my hands only to find the tap didn't work.
Tsk… and I thought the French had transport sussed.

Girl in the contracts dept at work managed to somehow get the toilet block that hangs over the rim of the loo hooked on the back of her trousers, god knows how.. maybe she doesn't sit on the loo seat or something. Of course we merrily ripped the p*ss, would have been churlish not to

I avoid this by not washing my hands in the automatic flush of the urinal.

I have just done something monumentally stupid....
Soap dispensers in the toilets here were not working....block of soap left by the sink instead.
Except it wasn't a bar of soap but a urinal disinfectant block.
Doesn't look like I was the first one caught out but I am spreading a po-puri smell around the office now. My hands are impregnated with this smell and it wont go away.
Bloody cleaners and their practical jokes.
So, who's still coming to the crimbo party....I may have stopped smelling by then.Tags: None
