If I was going to lock myself in a fridge, I would be quite keen on having a door that fell off.

We used our Bosch dishwasher for the first time last night, I only installed it 2 years ago.

Keep a chair and a few bricks handy for when the door falls off.

Don't look at me, I'm a carpenter.

There you are ! A new business opportunity. Wooden fridges !

Just got a call from work: the late meeting is cancelled so instead of being due to go in at 1pm I should have been there at ten.

This is the problem with working with a bunch of Birkenstock wearing social workers: we're all cr*p at keeping people informed.

On the other hand we're very good at explaining how this makes us feel.

Surely you're old enough to remember fridge doors that locked, it's a fairly recent innovation for them to use vacuum to keep them closed, I believe it was several children dying that initiated the change

If anyone is interested ? I put the dustbin out earlier. If not I won't bother !

If you don't put it out it won't be emptied

There used to be public information films on the TV urging people to take the doors off abandoned fridges to prevent those tragedies. They still happen in the States.

Interesting I always presumed it was a vacuum seal, never felt a magnet in the seal
