That's OK Sue, it was funny once the taste of artifical flowers had faded. It was a spray bottle but I unscrewed it. Needless to say this was in my drunken undergraduate days.

Did have to go to A&E the next day as chest was much worse, turned out it had agravated the lining of my lungs From now on will be watching 'How clean is you house' for eco friendly cleaning tips!
