The Dangers of Pods - Paul - 17 August 2012

We looked at little sleep pods a while ago I'm thinking.
Then, today I see this.

Looks like a typical sheeple mistake but worth a mention.

RE: The Dangers of Pods - bigpaul - 17 August 2012

Oooh nasty, poor devils, just waiting for that communist rag that ran the story to try and make a campaign out of it. I hate the Northern Echo.

Not related to CO but I was wild camping many years ago when my mate tried to light a campingaz lamp in his little tent. We were all outside by the fire and just watched as his tent suddenly glowed bright yellow, followed by him flying out through the entrance backwards with various parts of his anatomy smoldering. His tent disintegrated but he escaped with just singed hair, no eyebrows and plenty of burn holes in his clothes

Looking back if could have been serious but at the time we thought it was hilarious.

Those were the days Smile

Many things that everyone knew a few decades ago are forgotten in the modern world. People make mistakes and they pay for it. Feel sorry for those that are caught up in it because someone else has done something stupid.
