I continued to trickle, when suddenly there was a bang, the lid flew off and there was an explosion of strawberry pulp. I got a shirtfull, and the walls and ceiling were splattered. Luckily the lid did not hit me.

Call me an insensitive arse but it took a full 5 minutes for my eyes to dry and my pants are still a bit moist :lol: =D>

It was funny - I have a couple of Jpegs to prove it, but I don't see how to upload them. It could have been unfunny. But it wasn't.

Okay, you are an insensitive arse. Join the club!

Sorry couldn't help myself, if you search you can find my own tales of woe. On uploading pictures, you need an account like photobucket, upload them to your account there then just copy the img code and paste into a post. You have to post a few times before you are allowed to do this but I'm sure you already have so let it rip.

Thanks for the photobucket tip. I'll see about that in day or two.
