Mike, not meaning to be picky, but could you fix your new avatar's left ear? It looks as if he has been involved in a "drive by" or a recent "bumper strike".

Fixed digitally. I had misread the instructions as clearly espoused in the color-by-number book. :~()
Cheers, Mike*.
* Yes. I'll say it myself to save everyone the bother : these E@H forums are being modded by a guy who can cock up a color by numbers picture.

I've found a swiftly moving foot striking very near the handle opens most doors pretty quickly.
Thank you, Mikey :) Most useful... and when you've been plunged into darkness in the far reaches of a room... somehow... *look at no Gary in particular* ... what do you recommend then?
;)
... {excellent instructions removed to allow the following important additional point to be more visible in the gloom} ...
Having avoided walking around in circles, or getting lost in walk in robes or other cubby holes you forgot about, or falling through open trapdoors that had mysteriously appeared after the lights went out and having at last reached your intended destination only to find said door jammed firmly shut and having located the exact spot next to the handle where you will deliver the life-saving podiatric blow, start hoping like hell that said door actually opens outwards ;-).
Otherwise, if you do manage ultimately to get saved, hope that your cry of anguish is heard by the nearest podiatrist. You may very well need such services :-).

Yes most bedroom and bathroom doors do open into the room, here in the US anyway, and that does pose a problem in trying to exit if it's stuck. The answer is to put something in the doorway to prevent that when you go in, or find a window and throw something thru it hoping that someone outside gets hit or hears your cries for assistance.

Or it's a steak slipping out of his hat.
I didn't want to say anything in case he was trying to sidle out of a supermarket with it.
I thought Kavanagh was distracting security with a call to an early bathtime - followed by a suckling pig.
[editing went wrong here people. I wish it hadn't. I'd put it back how it was if I could remember how it was, but I can't so haven't]
A slow walk back to the door using your feet ...
*knowledgeable blink*
You've written instruction guides before, Mikey. I can tell.
You and Gary'r should collaborate :) I'm thiiiiiiiiiinking... something about feet.
Might Turkey Twizzlers trigger an early thread win
Not unless I'd gone insane, no. If they'd been invented in time then maybe one either side of a stick might have worked, I don't know and with twizzlers having been decommissioned - probably never will
Hope everyone's 2018 is as good as or better than 2017!
*tosses hugs around*
*grab hug* Awwwwwwwwwww... thank you, Kathryn! :) And what you said, to you and everyone else too from me :)
Please wait here. Further instructions could pile up at any time. Thank you.
Win98 OEM V2 was a keeper too. Lovely view. Two pyrotechnicians quickly dove overboard into our Yarra River in Melbourne, from their mortar boat, because something had went rather wrong. An unexpected close call. Most onlookers thought it part of the show when the boat blew up. No one hurt though.
Cheers, Mike.

A sentiment I must heartily agree with :-)

Whilst one prepares to accept one's victory, one wishes all here a happy and prosperous new year. :-)

2 hours and counting until the new year. I'm compulsively watching Law & Order.
Hope everyone's 2018 is as good as or better than 2017!

This is either Microsoft
This is either Microsoft lighting old versions of Windows on fire (except XP Pro) or some sort of holiday ......the Seattle version.
