don't drink too much alcohol unless you feel like it, and then you could make a flowerbed or something out of the unused alcohol. And a packet of crisps in the wind is a useful packet of crisps not spared whatsoever, it's foil in the wind... and then there's the terrible unused cake in christmas parties.. bad.

When you've missed the last coach back to Bournemouth at London Victoria coach station, don't abuse the Met Police when they're trying to help.
Or you'll spend the night locked up in Belgravia cop shop

Trapped wind or bloating?
Don't bother with chemically pills and the like, just lie on your back and pull your knees up to your chest, squeeze, and relaxxxx....
Note: more sensitive co-workers may object, so it may be best to sneak into an enclosed space, like the bosses office while he is away from his desk.
We have a winner!But this is a doozy

Don't go to the expense of buying summer and winter tyres. Simply buy one pair of winter tyres and run them inside out during the dry summer months!

Plane not cutting too well despite just honing the blade? Put a few streaks across the sole with a candle and your plane will really glide across your timber.

When stuck behind a learner motorcyclist, honking your horn, flashing your lights and gesticulating like an epileptic experiencing both a fit and 240 volts passing your scrotum will not help in getting you on your way any quicker.
In fact it will lead to the learner motorcyclist having a bit of a panic and forgetting how to do a hill start after a stall, then going on a deliberate go-slow up the hill.

If a pregnant lady wishes to give birth you should lay her on her back with her legs in the air and entice the baby out by waving a rattle near the end of her skirt.

Go green. Save your toenail clippings. Put them in an old stocking and knot it. Now you have a very good pan scourer.

Elfin's Top Tip:
If the need to argue on tinternet overcomes you, avoid arguing with Elfin, as he is always right and the more you argue with him the sillier you will look and more laughing he will be.

Gamut chain devices are noisy due to having a nylon chain roller. Cut a section out of a roadie inner tube and slip it over the roller with a bit of glue and the noise goes.

I loved the viz one about polar bears adapting to global warming by rebranding themselves solar bears. It then had a picture of polar bears poolside on sun loungers.

Save money on expensive beehives by stealing a bee from your neighbor's hive, one per night.
That way, in just over 37 years you'll have your own free beehive and free honey to suit...

Going away for a few weeks, but worried dirty crooks will break in and ride away on your beloved stead. Just use some muckoff; spray on thoroughly, wait a few minutes then rinse off with plenty of water, in a mearly 24 hours all moving parts will sieze and rust solid, completely immobalizing the bike, making it virtually impossible to ride away on.
