Disastrous situation

You’ve made some lighthouse openers

I know I’ll get my coat

?

 

[Kirsten]

Can openers often have a handy hooked bit you can use it to open cap by prising up several of the serrated edges. Or if you don’t need to open a tin use the wheel bit and prise upwards . Slange x

If only I was likely to cook from a can I’d have a can opener but these days Heinz beans have ring pull lids

If you were a knight you could use your sword.

During my twelve years in the army I never owned a bottle opener. Our regimental belt buckle was made for opening bottles. The moto on it said twist to open.
Most of the fitters vehicles had a bottle opener fitted but one of our officers thought he would try and bring some culture to our crowd by bringing a bottle of wine. We left him to work out how he was going to get in it whilst we drank the beers.

You REME ???

Sir Kannon Fodda. I like the sound of that

Trouble is I’m more likely to fall on said sword

 

[Toady]

Always carry a Leatherman. Alternative strike top off using the edge of a wall

an ordinary disposable light opens bottles better than a bottle opener. One of the first skills I learnt in Basic

. Yes I remember that one very well.
R.E’s. = Ruin Everything.
I did the 25 stretch and made WO 1 ASM.
Pension is very welcome now and keeps us on the road as often as possible in the van.
Nice to meet you.

The cushiest number I ever had was three years in the REME Base Workshops at 39 Engr Regt., Waterbeach. The REME CO was a golf nut and he'd built a mini golf course on the airfield! My first important job there was to machine up a new compound gear train for the gang mower! I made sub Sgt. whilst there at only 25 years old, I can't think why...

Wife's belly button

 

[The Old Man]

Lay the bottle top on a table edge and smack it with your hand.

Wrecks you table edge, but you get the beer.

Step out of the van and use the same technique against a wheel rim.

 

[bilM]

This is how I do it.

Church Key…..been on my house keys since my army days. If you were asked to present your Church Key and didn’t have it on you….…..cost a couple of Yellow Handbags (Herforder).

Paderborner Pilsner for us. Miss the good old days

 

[EuroTrotters]

Don’t buy cheap Chinese bottle openers and go on to buy premium beers.

 

[Wabs]

I would drill a small hole, put the pipe through your water inlet,,let that run through to the water heater,take a lead off your inverter,and power a small nuclear device,to create steam, then, run that through your toilet casette,for purification,then you should be ok,,but only if the MH is level and there is no wind,,,,,,otherwise don’t bother,,get another bottle

 

[bobnick]

Never leave home without 2 bottle openers.
Or buy twist top only.

It was 1966. Drinking several double rums and pep in the squadron bar (5p each in new money) in the 16 Sqn RE bar in Osnabrook started to become a habit, so I went to see the CO to ask for some leave to go and get my motorbike from the UK. When asked why I said I didn't want to become an alky like everyone else!
His response was "Admirable sentiments young man: take a week off!"
I was the first of the few and I thoroughly enjoyed myself!
