What a plonker am I. Went for an MRI head scan this morning as my hearing is out of balance and the docs wanted to check my inner ears. The radiographer went through the long list of stuff you can’t take in with you, which unfortunately didn’t mention car keys!

Scan lasted 15 mins while I watched a remarkably unengaging video of pandas eating bamboo shoots! The MRI was banging and buzzing away the whole time, surprisingly noisy! When they slid me out, and I tried to sit up there was a movement in my pocket and my car key fob flew out at crazy high speed and stuck itself to the big magnet surrounding the tunnel. OMG! It was quite difficult to prise off! 😲

The radiographer looked at me like she had seen it all before, ‘that’s not going to work again’ she said, ‘has it got a manual key in there you can pull out’, yes says I fumbling with the key. She then escorted me out as fast as she could, must have been a backlog of patients or she just thought ‘got a right one here and something else might fly out of his pants!’

They must go round every night scraping off the coins!
Happy to, say the key still works and survived the ordeal even if I didn’t!😉
