Literally last night thanks to quick thinking by Richie and thanks to a 99p shop Barbecue Tongs!!! Laughing

We closed the bedroom door rather hard last night on our way out to the shops, we got back to find the obsolete KEYLESS Surprised

Yale lock on our door had flipped shut! Shocked

I sorta did find it abit funny but in a split second I realised Eric & Elwyn where locked in our bedroom and the last locksmith I had to use for a similar problem cost £125!!!

Richie scratched his head forabit... I needed a wee but couldnt get through the bedroom obviously to the toilet (we wont go into that Laughing

)
Anyway he grabbed the 99p shop tongs broke one in half and proceeded to bash it into the door frame! It worked with minimum damage thank god's Eric & Elwyn was saved (And I could go for a wee!!! Laughing

)

Only to us huh! Rolling Eyes

Fortunate indeed. I wish I knew how to force locks, that would have saved me a few quid in the past.
