when i was younger, my mum bought a new carpet,and it was rolled up and propped up on the stairs. I accidentaly dropped a bottle of shampoo down there, and my mum told me if i wished really hard, i would shrink enoungh to crawl down and fetch.I was stood at the top of the stairs for about half an hour with my eyes closed tring to shrink. hehe
