 Pizza Box Stress Position 

Yesterday I had to carry the take away back from the shop.
There were two pizzas and a bag of curly fries and a tortilla type thing which turned out to be more like a calzone. 
The pizza of course had the held flat and the bag they give you at the chippy is flimsy so you have to wrap that around your hand.
Its about 10 minutes from shop to home and I was tired anyway. Not sure why as it hadn't been a taxing day, maybe a spot of hay fever or a bit less sleep the night before.
Holding the pizza flat was a strain on my hand. It tingled and ached so I stopped half way to swap hands, that gave some relief but it was still good to get home with it all.
I'd been reading earlier that day about the recent flotilla hostages taken by Israel government.  Held cuffed face down in child position, sometimes in water deep enough to feel they were drowning. A few months ago I'd read about Palestinian hostages tied in stress positions for years on end.
