John,

I can visualise the slowly evolving disaster as you twisted that bit harder and the bottle split, leaving you unable to stop the deluge!
As you say, the upside is that your bench is nice and shiny and your hands soft and aromatic.

Nothing organic should be in a plastic bottle for more than 3 to 5 years. Glass is best!!
