K and I were in the Turkish Steam Room when two numpties turned up, opened the door to check there was space (fair enough, it was busy), then left the door open whilst they sorted out their robes and towels (this took some time), before coming in and literally squealing 'Oh GOD! Too hot! too hot!' before pressing what they thought was the light switch* then running out.

K and I looked at each other.

"Well, it's not hot any more..."

Seriously, if you go into a steam room, open the door, go in, then CLOSE THE DOOR.



* no, that'd be the emergency ZOMG TROUBLE!!11! button which causes the staff to come over and check no-one has died.

you use numptie up your way too? I thought it was just a Barnsley term. Never heard it this far south

numptie exists at least as far down as Derby.
However I have heard Sir Terry of Wogan use it so I believe it is gaining widespread appeal
