If you've ever forgotten your keys, or phone, or to lock the door...you're still doing better than this dear soul.

"A boater accidentally drained a stretch of the Kennet and Avon Canal after leaving all the lock gates open.

A section of the waterway was left with hardly any water on Tuesday near the Barge Inn in Seend, Wiltshire.

A spokesperson for the Canal and River Trust confirmed what happened was not malicious but that the boater was "rushing and left the paddles up".

The lock paddles "work like a plug on a bath in allowing water in and out of the locks," he explained."

Oops
