The title for today’s show is there for a reason as we looked at two stories involving the smallest room in the house.
First off we heard all about “REGGIE” a 3 foot long Baby Royal Python, who made a surprise, and somewhat unwelcome appearance, in the loo belonging to Laura Cowell of Southend, who’s 5-year old son was less than impressed to be greeted by 2 beady eyes peering over the rim of the pan when he lifted the lid.
Reggie, who has since been re-united with his owner, appears to have escaped captivity whilst his owner Tim Yardley, was moving house.
Later we heard about a real life “log jam” and a date that went disastrously wrong for a couple in Bristol.
Following a meal at Nando’s, 24-year old Bristol University post-grad Liam Smyth and his date returned to his flat for a nightcap, but before they settled down, Liam’s date, known only as TULIP OHARE, went to the loo.
Unfortunately she ended up blocking it and, perhaps unwisely decided to take matters, quite literally, into her own hands by attempting to remove the offending item, which would not flush away.
So she tried to pick it up with loo paper and throw it out of the window.
Unfortunately it landed on the windowsill so Liam bravely helped to lower his date out of the window in a retrieval operation.
More bad news was to come when the poor girl became wedged hanging upside down out of the window. She eventually had to be rescued by firefighters who had to smash the window in order to successfully complete their bizarre mission.
Following the incident, Liam set up a GoFundme page to try to raise the £300 necessary to repair his window.
Amazingly by last Thursday he had raised £2482 so Liam plans to donate the surplus to charity,
And yet more good news. The pair have fixed a second date.
This must surely go more smoothly!
And on that high note, I’ll see you again tomorrow,
Scott
