    Hope this helps...

      Dear John, I would suggest asking Christine to bring you food as you maybe stuck to the chair as well.

      Plus ask for the tablet to look at the huge choice of replacement trousers. It's either that or a rather large patch on the bum bits!!

          Well Wobble,
          I do not know what to say about your predicament. I am now taking it that since you posted yesterday and you are stuck to the chair, you had to lay your head on the bench to get some sleep and asuming there was the forgotten puddle of c/a, your head is now stuck to the bench, and as the bench is only sitting on top of a foot stool and the stool is only 10 inches in height, you are bent over at an angle where your head is between your legs.... But look on the bright side, you can see the sun come up and Christine now has somewhere to park her bike.... :flushed:
          Wibble

                  You know Mike, I like the idea of cleaning tiny tweezer held parts with hands inside a gallon twist tie food storage bag.
                  This way if a launch occurs it will be held within the bag......no?.....hmmm:thinking:
