Lock down

Went to Semewater this afternoon , a small lake near Hawes . This used to be a haunt of my childhood and was a family tradition in high summer . Quite poignant now i took Evie for the first time . Its my turn now.... Anyway on packing up i threw the keys on the drivers seat and shut the door while turning to Evie and the Fiesta promptly shut the central locking... Oh dear . Phone on the inside , Evie on the outside and a thunder storm brewing . Luckly the window was down just enough to hook the keys with a stick amazingly . Did my parents have stuff like this happen , probably , highly probably....

EXACTLY

Ladies and Gentlemen , I am now locked up in a handcuff that has taken a British mechanic five years to make . I do not know whether i am going to be able to get out of it or not , but i can assure you i am going to do my best......  Harry Houdini
