BOY GETS TOILET SEAT STUCK ON HEAD
By Brian Farmer, PA
Firefighters were called to rescue a three-year-old boy who got his head stuck
in a toilet training seat.
The fire crew used a hacksaw to cut the plastic seat from the youngster's head
after being called to a house in Laindon, Essex, last night.
"We're always glad to be of service," said a fire service spokesman.
"Youngsters do this sort of thing from time to time."

Hardly worth stopping a game of snooker for, I'd have thought....

My dad was in the fire brigade in West Sussex - I remember him saying that they had an identical call out a few years ago.

Please say Bry had to do that!!!

Sadly................................................no!!!

Did have a call last year that came through on the telex as "Wife stuck in bath."

I have NEVER seen the crew mount the appliance and the bay doors go up quite so quickly. So imagine our disppointment on discovering that the lady in question was well into her 80s, and had become trapped in a recently emptied bath by the effect of 'vacuum suction' on her rather large body....

I still remember her husband's words, when our Commanding Officer suggested that his wife may wish to cover herself with some towels to preserve her modesty...

"Oh no, mate. She ain't got nuffink you boys ain't seen before."
