1) Wash it under the tap.
2) Dry it.
3) Leave it by a dehumidifier overnight.

This will sort it. However, under no circumstances do 4.

4) Tell her after step 2 but before step 3.

* Vimto - A Northern beverage.
** Not a euphemism.

Put it in the dishwasher, then ask her why she put it there. 😕

Chuck it in the bin, don't tell her anything. 😉

Harry - when you say 'calculator', you actually mean iPhone, don't you?

I regularly fill my Camelbak with the elixir of northernness. Once the hose split, where it joins the bladder and deposited a fair amount of the contents down my crack. Very sticky stuff Vimto when it dries, you know?

Is this a euphemism?

Pics or it didn't happen.

EDIT: I once fired my Cream Soda all over my wifes' mouse. Is it the same thing?

When you say vimto do you actually mean sudocrem, and when you say calculator do you actually mean cat?

Did you hear about the dyslexic drunk who choked on his own Vimto?

I blame firing Cream soda too close to the wifes mouse for actually having the second kid!

Protip: Forget the dehumidifier & put it in a cup of (uncooked) rice.

Throw it away and buy a new one? That's what my wife's IT department had to do when she forgot to put the cap on her bottle of 7up before she put it in her work bag along with her laptop, blackberry & iPhone.

7up makes very pretty patterns on a LCD screen when it dries a bit an the item gets turned on again.

I just spat my porridge out and that is not a euphemism 😆
