Good job you weren't a burglar.

True :-) since found out that the key doesn't have to be in the door ie if
the door isn't locked a tap of the barrel from the inside releases that
notch that keeps the door from opening on the outside.
So in effect had I got a piece of wood and done the above I'd of been in but
I struggled to try and get the key out with a piece of wire coat hanger.
duh!
