In reply to lone:
This is completely not helpful, but is quite amusing...
A friend of my partner bought a new bath, which was duly delivered. Before fitting it, he thought he would surprise his wife, so he set it up in the living room with candles and a glass of wine, and laboriously filled it with buckets of hot water. She came home to find him very pleased with himself for surprising her, and urged him to get in first, having an inkling of what was going to happen next. The bath was not a freestanding bath and was somewhat flexible, so as he got in the movement of the water built up enough momentum to tip it over, spilling water (and an embarrassed, wet, naked man) across the living room floor and tripping the electrics. Which at least meant that the guy in question wasn't ever forced to admit that he had no idea how he was going to empty the thing!
I am lead to believe that the wine was appreciated, at least.
(This may be apocryphal, but it was told to me as a true story and it did make me laugh)
