never screw over your partner. :)

Ah, so you expected that I'd expect that.  That was...unexpected. :)

As was the call for help by John He is locked in the lavatory.
It looks like he'll be there till Saturday.
I used a first class stamp to call the Fire Brigade, though. ;)

I don't think I want to know any more on that.

Well, that's good - that he called for the FB, that is.  Not that he's 
locked in.

We'll have to give him leave for that, but I have a feeling I'm going to 
be back in huff on Sunday until Wednesday evening.  Or whatever "Canadian 
huff" is.

I'll have to ask a coworker who's there.  I'm sure one of them will know 
the Canadian variant.
