Just fancied a pint glass of wine as i occasionally do, went to the cupboard where the wine rack is, it's bloomin empty. There is an almost full bottle of cognac, but my liver don't want to start on the hard stuff. The other wine rack has plenty of bottles on but is on top of the unit and I'm too short to reach. hubby is in bed, don't really want to wake him up. So I get on a chair, success I have a bottle. It's a screw top, can't open it. Takes bottle into kitchen to put it under the hot tap, uses tea towel to grip it. Still can't open it. Back into dining room gets the nutcrackers from back of the drawer.
Cheers

No you are not Lowi just be thankful you have a top of the kitchen unit, when we replaced our kitchen, because I was sick of everyone dumping stuff on top of the old kitchen units I insisted on units right up to the ceiling, hubby's gone away for a Stag weekend, guess where he's put my fags? 2 bleeding inches away from the ceiling on the top shelf, we have gas lift spinny around stools in the kitchen, if I stand on one to reach I'm liable to catapult myself out the window, he's taken the keys to the sheds & vans with him so I can't get to a ladder, I could drag a dining chair through I suppose, I've been trying to stab a packet with a carving fork.

Can't you climb onto the worktop and then use a potato masher, or a coat hanger or summat
Underneath that particular cupboard is the biggest superest, duperest breadbin microwave you have ever seen, there is no room to stand on, which is precisely why 'Lee' put's them there in the first place, he's a non smoker. I've just exploded

That could be handy for anyone who wants to turn water into wine lol

Lowny, with any tops on bottles or cans that I can't unscrew with a cloth or whatever I lightly tap the lid all the way round on the edge of the counter top and that always does the trick, hope that helps  oh and buy some step ladders lol

Essex, maybe he's just trying to help you give up the fags, looking after yer, perhaps you are being ungrateful towards him just noticed the ad at top, for wooden wine racks
I've just phoned him and told him to retrieve the ÂĢ50 quid he's probably just poked in the lap dancers knickers, buy me a packet of fags & send them by cab from Reading to Essex. He is so going to get a slap when he comes home tomorrow.

pffffft  he only gave me ÂĢ20 quid, and he folded it ever so neatly before he  slobbered down my cleavage! By the way...he says the dining room chair  is a good idea !
