My boss used to have an Ex-BT escort van, he locked the keys in and we managed to get some ceiling grid wire and feed it through the old flashing light hole and open the door... +1 for Ceiling grid wire!! Did take us like 3 hours though

My first car was a Cavalier, I locked the keys inside it one rainy Friday evening and had to break into it with the coathanger trick. On the corner of our street was a phone box and there was a queue at it. One of the buggers rang the police on me and they turned up before I got into the thing.

An empty box comes handy so you can make a sleeving dispenser, then no one can pull the wrong loop and turn the whole bundle into a mess of spaghetti

I keep my earth sleeve in a ragged bundle in my toolbox. If I can't find an end I just chop into it til I have a dozen ends to choose from. Drives my workmate nuts

Haha that's what the guys do to me, I'm sad about my earth sleeve and try to keep it bundled, this method is no good for the boots of a general site though, I'll give it two days and if its not been slung in the skip cos it looks like rubbish then it'll be kicked to bits!
