    This is what happens when you won't risk using the bog at work. Sometimes not taking a leap is the riskiest choice of all.

    I'm happy to accept that risk is inherent in most things.

    I mitigate this by carrying spare trousers and a pocket pack of mansize tissues

    I'm averse to Risk. It takes far too long to play and there's always an argument about how many armies you get at the start of each turn.
