I spot a joke there …Preliminary test proved the the "shoot" part was spot on, but the "scoot" aspect didn't work due to the shot blowing the head off the "scoot" mechanism. After a few tests, the project was dropped…………...….

JimHi Mike

No, it is the younger person trying to converse with the older person, which the younger person cannot do due to the older person not being in the vicinity of the screwdriver to take off the older persons lid, so has to wait for the older persons older partner of not so old an age to turn the screws that allow the older person out so that the older person can converse with the much younger person who has aged considerably while reading this - got it.Ooh er that's cool looking older than me person .
Brilliant work as usual Mike.
