Hi, On Monday 6th Oct '17. I was visiting my local Hospital and decided to go to the hospital canteen. I asked for tomato soup, and would it be possible to place it in a takeaway cup, as I wanted to take it away. The lady obliged, and as I was walking towards the exit. I could feel a sneeze coming on. So rather than stand and sneeze in the middle of the canteen. I sat down at the table. Just as I was trying to put my cup of tomato soup down ( with hindsight I should have done first). Just as the cup was inches away from the table. I sneezed hard. The cup jumped a little, and of course my luck.. soup decided to escape the cup at a high speed of knots. I was wearing a cream jumper.. so needless to say, it got me. What I didn't know until I looked around, There were a few smiling faces as I looked around the canteen and that there of course just had to be a woman sitting at the table, who got a splashing of tomato soup. And of course, she had to be wearing a white blouse type shirt. I had just got myself with a teaspoonful of the darn soup, but this poor woman got more than half the cup of it over her shirt. I was mortified. I apologised, and offered to pay for any dry cleaning bill. To which she sneered at me, and asked for my address. It is just fortunate that the soup was not burning hot!

In future I should either avoid tomato soup or at least ask for a lid for the cup which would have been the obvious thing to do!
