A supposedly intelligent but clearly not very well domesticated friend at University once tried to make Porridge in an electric kettle. Genious.

It is also advisable when leaving the garage at OEZ to not try to start your car with the plastic parking token while your car keys are lying on the passenger's seat.

Never trust a puddle that starts half way up a wall.

 

Along the kettle lines a girl I know's boyfriend and his cousin has come to stay with her for the week. Apparently he is a domesticated disaster she was at school all day so they sat at home and starved, so she got them ragu pasta sauce and noodles for the next day. Apparently he tried to cook the noodles (entire bag of spaghetti noodles) in a inch of water and tried to make the sauce by putting the bottle in boiling water :D

When smoking, attach a flexible vent hosepipe to your face and run it out of the window - just like the humble tumble dryer. All the non-smokers will love you!

Do not sleep walk and mistake the front door for the bathroom door. It is firstly embarrassing to ring the neighbours door naked at 4 in the morning to get a call to a locksmith. Secondly it is expensive.

Do not hit your head repeatedly on a desk. Studies suggest it may cause nosebleed.

Or forget that your Mum redecorated and the top-opening freezer is now where the toilet used to be, the toilet having been moved to a cubby hole at the foot of the stairs. You know who you are.

Do not catch a mouse in a cardboard box, take it outside to let it go, closing the door behind you, in November, without taking the keys with you!

Do not get ridiculously drunk and think its a good idea to wear your "dancing shoes" in a ski resort with lots of steep hills and ice.
