Help me help me help me! (before 6 tonight!)

[Young Un]

I was just on my rollers in the kitchen (don't ask) and I went to get off them, and the bike fell off the edge of the roller and the hood scuffed down the wall leveing a eight inch black streak on the wall. I ran and got a wet cloth but it won't come off with that! What can I do, before the 'rents get home in two hours to get rid of it? apart form finding the touch up paint. PLease please please help me or I'm really in the dog house!

Cheers
Steve

cif cream cleaner might do the trick or get a dish cleaning scouring pad- with the white or green bit easily srcub the stain off the wall but the cif is better. take it easy though- too much elbow grease and you could scrub off too much paint

Phew...

Yeah I was thinking about getting out the touch up paint, but it should be ok now! Bike's fine fortunately! Think my heart got more of a work out when I saw the scuff than doing the actualy roller session!

How to embarrass GF in supermarket….

Stand by ‘Household cleaners’ with bottle of Cif in hand and shout down the isle, “I’ve got the Cif!”.

Just lie on the floor not moving, throw some ketchup around and on your head, with the bike askew.

Parents will be so concerned about whether you are alive that they won't bother about a scuffed wall.

Naaa....

Go to the kitchen drawer, get a knife and do a proper job.

If in doubt faint!

I lit a banger once in the house when I was a kid as an accident as I was joking to one of my sisters I was going to. It actually ignited and it started fizzing like mad. Panicked, chucked it on the floor and before it let off the loudest bang I've heard in my life, ever, scorched 3 huge black marks on the upstairs hall cream carpet.

I just piled magazines on top of it and hoped it would just go away. It didn't and a day later when i came in from school got my arse kicked. My fireworks my parents didn't know I had confiscated and kept in for 3 nights.

I'm sure your parents will be fine though
