Day 98: Stuck in the airlock

[BigRed]

My worst experience was when I got back to a hotel with the county darts team. We had been drinking from 12:00 to 18:00 and the half hour drive had left us a bit desperate to the toilets, we piled into the lift which went 1.5 floors and stopped. Worst 30mins of my life.

Coming soon to an airport near you....

Seriously? Why? What purpose do they serve other than adding to your frustrations and stress levels? (couldn't link to your vid btw - don't have flash).

I used to work at a place that had these. Used to take 10-15 minutes just to get in some mornings - especially if you timed your arrival to coincide with that of the bus.

Mindnumbing, tortuous experience.

wtf? Unless you were naked in reception or forced to eat the other people in the lift that seems like an overeaction.



Wife & 3 kids got stuck in a lift for 30 mins at our eldest school, we just laughed it off. I just tell everyone it as the time she was actually late for an appointment.

I shared a lift with Suity. Worst 30 seconds of my life.

Airlock? Do you work on a submarine or something?

In fairness I think the gym itself caused the trauma, the door was just an excuse to never go back!

did you cancel your membership?

That happened to me at Pure Gym once. Traumatised me so much I couldn't go back.

Swipes security card.

Waits for inner door to open.....

20 minutes of standing looking like a cryogenically frozen extra.

At least I didn't drop me guts this time though (seurity settings)

I had that experience as a child at Sizewell B - though only for a few minutes. Got me worried though.
