Dezzy... Unless you have really short arms, you don't need to climb in to get to the battery

How are you doing Dezzy? Are you still in the Dockyard? (If you carry on banging on the boot lid the MoD Plod will be along shortly to find out the source off the noise/ fill the car full of holes using their H&K firearms.)

I guess the next stop is the locksmith?

Clearly you have a smart phone with you in the boot, so give someone a call!

Hope you get out soon.

That's an hour with nothing heard....

4 possibilities:-

His smartphone is now dead
He ran out of oxygen
The Navy Plod 'got' him
He got it sorted and forgot to tell us

Well, not acording to Schrodinger. It could be that the phone (and, indeed, Dezzy) are in a quantum state of being both alive and dead.

Glad to hear that all is now well and that all participants are now alive and kicking.
