Don't you just hate it...

...when a tin of beer explodes in your top box. If these roads get any worse I'll need to trade the BB in for a MX.

If I were you I'd give it a couple weeks before buying a lottery ticket

Could be worse, could be a broken bottle of beer stuffed inside of jacket,
made a mess of my friend´s stomach years ago, when he had an off.

Another mate was overlooked by a car driver when riding his "DR Big",
bike embedded in car fender, rider took off and landed 60ft further down the road.
I was in the city and right in front of a hospital, so he was in A&E just minutes after the accident.
Mate was more shocked than badly hurt, his first question to the nurses was "Is Jack OK?"
They did not understand this until they took his jacket off and found the JD bottle,
which was unharmed.

I used to know a guy who always drank blackcurrent and lemonade when he was down the pub. One night as he was riding home he got taken out by some silly bint who fell asleep at the wheel, fast forward to the local A & E where he started to puke pretty much everywhere. The doctors immediate response was to call in a surgical consult and prep him for surgery due to internal bleeding. Fortunatly, after some very fast talking he managed to avoid the surgery

I've had 4 tins in my jacket before now. I've only ever put bottles in the top box (or tail pack), I'd never put a bottle in my jacket, thats just plain daft. I've had bottles go before, but for a tin to rupture...honestly one corner in particular is full of pot holes, just can't be avoided.

Hopefully voting Lib Dem will get them fixed

This remind's me of year's ago when i had an old honda cb200, i went and got a chinese takeaway, put it in the top box,,, it didnt end well

Spilt milk in a topbox & spanish sun doesn't smell good that evening. Rinsed it out in a stream to get rid of the stink - much nicer afterwards.

I had the lid come off a jar of instant coffee inside my pannier. Turned out the pannier seal had gone too so some rain got in there with it...

I'm afraid that from experience I can assure you they will spend all the money on putting up traffic lights every 5 yards around new, pointless one-way systems.

So your going slow enough to avoid the potholes meaning they don't need fixing...
