I would be really stuffed if there was a fire right now. .  . Bugger what a start to the day . |

Good that you're nipping it right away opposed to later  |

When we moved into our first flat in the UK we got stuck in our living room with no tools or phones or anything.
We ended up getting a long rope, tying a dog toy to the bottom, putting it out the window and knocking on our downstairs neighbors kitchen window for an hour. Eventually they came to investigate, tied a hammer to the rope and sent it back up to us.
We were eventually able to get ourselves out using the hammer. Good luck to you, at least you have a phone and everything and have contact with the outside world

I live in a Salvation Army Housing Association flat, and their building contractors are allegedly coming to put some new windows in shortly, the scaffolding has been up for about 5 months. I got burgled not long after moving in and it took them 6 weeks before they sent someone to fix ma door properly  |

If you'd have used a real dog you would have got their attention a lot sooner  |

Used to fit double glazing, all houses having new windows should have a means of fire escape in them. The changing of a mechanism on a door can be dead easy or a proper pig of a job |

Long time since I was locked in my room. |
