    Angry Child-proof caps on bottles!

    Or whatever they're called! I'm not a child but I can't do it! Apart from the ones you have to 'press' in a certain place, then turn, there's the others which you have to push down and turn ...... maybe even more ways.

    Hubby always has to open them for me and once my seven year old Grandaughter did it for me ...... so I think they should be renamed Diane-proof.
    Best Wishes,
    Diane

    I refuse to struggle with those stupid tops anymore - I have bought a clever little gadget that does them for me and it really works. I bought this from Lakeland - a chain of shops full of interesting gadgets

    It's like those flat plastic 'plugs' you put in the electric sockets to stop children using them ......... the only people with small enough fingers to get a grip on them so that they can be removed are children!

    and how about those 'sport' tops on bottles of water etc?
    Coming back from London yesterday - 4 hours of motorways and suburban traffic but that's another story - every time I needed some water, I had to ask one of my grandchildren to open the bottle for me!
