    Much like your tea and walking up stairs:
    - There is no safe way to eat a bowl of cereal with milk while driving

    Don’t iron your jeans while you are wearing them. It results in an iron-shaped burn on your inside leg.

    Don’t drink petrol, assuming that every drink that looks red is rasberry cordial.

    Don’t jump off the roof of your house with a parachute you made with bin bags, sticky tape and cotton thread.

    Don’t reverse a car with the door open.

    Don’t fly with Kazakhstan Air

    Don’t lend Tommy Emmanuel instructional videos to friends who may leave them to melt in their car during a summer camp. It may stop you from learning those fundamental lessons that ensure you go on to become a famous rock star, making it big, and retiring early so that you can live a life of leisure and happiness. And yes, I have got over it.

    Don’t try and apply soothing balm to the festering wounds of other people’s relationships - they don’t always appreciate it……… (Damo you may well be the only person who appreciates this comment - not that you and Tash have any such festering wounds!)
