The pizza polystyrene base 'thing'.....

I went to college and the canteen was run by the catering students. I have a fiendish sweet tooth and regularly bought pastries.

The first year, the pastries seemed tough and chewy.

One afternoon at the start of the second year, I spotted someone sitting down to eat their pastry and looking at the bottom of it.

THEY THEN PULLED A SECTION OF BAKING PAPER FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE PASTRY.

I'd been eating the paper all along during the first year.

Don't believe the beauty section of a women's magazine when it tells you to moisturise by smoothing the contents of a vitamin oil capsule on your face.

Well, not if you're going to choose a fish-oil capsule, anyway - getting the smell of fish out of your pillowcase takes weeks.

Don't shake a bottle of ketchup or milk before checking that the lid is on properly.

Love this thread.

Done the bottle of olive oil on the floor and the cat loved the left over turkey.

My best one though…….

Don't go all fancy pants and "cheffy" and decide to slosh some red wine over the pork chops to make a "jus" until you are sure that the pan is not too hot.

Luckily I had a fire blanket handy. Still had to replace some cupboard doors, light fittings and redecorate the kitchen.

It would have been cheaper to go to a restaurant.

Don't mistake the bottle of fluoride for baby drops on the bedside table table for errrr.....lubricant.

Too late, already did the germolene and only noticed when my tongue started to go numb. In my defence I was very tired (mountain climbing day) and no alcohol had been taken by the way.
