Oh dear, what can the matter be? I think they must be locked in the lavatory!

Something happened the other week when someone locked themselves in the toilet. The ironic thing was they hadn't even shot the bolt on the door. When you just close (not lock) a door the hand releases a catch so the door won't just swing open automatically, this catch got stuck when the door was closed! They were shouting and shouting for someone to help them and in the end someone had to push a saw under the door to them. They then had to saw though the catch in the door handle to get out and when they finally got the door open they were all shaken. They were saying, "Thank God... I just gotta sit down for a bit," (like they weren't doing that in there a few minutes before...) and there was a waterfall of sweat running down their forehead. I don't know what all the fuss was about, no one was hurt and I've seen on TV people who have escaped from very very dangerous situations (such as being stranded in deserts) without the help of a saw.
