When you've had to replace the roof on your shed, and class it as an EVA. Plus I was wearing full waterproof (jacket and Trousers) in pouring rain and howling winds. :)

Okay, someone has got it in for me. Another EVA situation:

In work today, I had to get from the hatch in the attic across the loft beams (east wing of the building, I've nicknamed it the P1 Truss), to add several CAT5e cables along the conduit. Install a discrete security video cam and repair a light fitting. To further familiar situation I left a screwdriver up there.

When you start drinking your own urine   :o


PS I must state that I never have or feel the slightest inclination (sic) to ever do this. I'm sure there's someone out there though. YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE  ;D

You Purge your cars fuel tank after using it and disconect the battery.
And let the air out of the tyres.

How tacky, they can't deliver it your door.  J/K.  I wonder if you have to purchase the crawler to transport it. ;D

-when your flying in your Cessna airplane, and after you have established your altitude, speed, and heading, you turn on the autopilot, and then throw out, the copilot, and passengers along with the passenger seats, because they "dissapear", after circulization burn.

-Just kidding, I'll never do that.

-when before you start moving in your car, you move the steering wheel all the way left and right to "gimball" hydraulic surfaces.
