    Good old Henry. In a past life, I was a hotel slave and have worked with many of Henry's brothers over the years and they aren't the sort of family that'd ever let you down if they could do something for you.

    I remember one day being out the back of one of the hotels by myself sorting out the recycling and baling the cardboard for collection. Some numpty put some broken class into a cardboard box and it snapped whilst being crushed in the machine and in the backlash, it cut me pretty deeply on the arm and I started to bleed heavily. Turning around in panic and looking for someone to help me, I spied through an open door that my mate Henry was just chilling out in the corner minding his own business so I thought it best to let a roar at him.
    "HENRY! I've cut myself badly, can you give someone a shout, I'll need first aid here if not stiches." Over and over I shouted it until I passed out from blood loss.

    Later, when I was found by some colleagues who were coming out for a smoke and I was brought to an ambulance, I saw Henry out of the corner of my eye and wondered why he'd let me down. It was then I remembered that he's a vacuum cleaner and as such, has no ability to raise the alarm when someone injures themselves. Needless to say, I have begun a letter writing campaign to address this alarming lack of essential life saving features on vacuum cleaners worldwide.

    He could have dragged you to safety using his suction power.
