If you're a girl, don't pack while drunk: reminded of the lovely trainee solicitor Lisa R who packed while drunk and arrived in Spain for a week's hols with 11 bras and no knickers. (The Lisa Rule).

AAAAAND he feckin' works in IT! You know how bloody precious that lot can be! (Apols to any normal tech boys, but I've dealt with some, ahem, "interesting" techys in my time).

JSLF passed away on 7 February 1873.

Then I'm looking for an upper age ban too.
