Hmmm, just got my bansaw back, but it needs a new chain, that was a tough old beanstalk.

Please tell this isn't anything to do with the BT press release regarding vandalism and theft of telegraph poles over the Christmas period...

IIRC they flung the slacks at Santa......

I'd just like to make it clear that I do not have anyone's trousers. Not even my own.

I haven't heard such tales of mass trouser loss since I was at university. Mine were recovered in the end but with white stains on them. I think it was whipped cream. Yes, that'll be it. The woman at the dry cleaners gave me quite a look. I learned two things. 1) never lend your trousers to someone else, however well-meaning and nice they may appear. 2) if they go AWOL and turn up stained, make someone else take them for cleaning.

Oh and 3) if going to a party where there is a high likelihood of losing one's trousers, make sure what is under them is appropriate for mass viewing. Wallace and Gromit boxer shorts... not a good look. Nuff said...

Any white stains are always due to toothpaste (a little Santa tip there)

I remember a party at which we debagged a colleague even though he fought valiantly against overwhelming, inebriated odds. We found out why when he was left standing in shoes and socks and a pair of big turquoise Y fronts with a sort of burgundy piping around the edges. My heart went out to him .

good after show party then?

oh wait.... it's all coming back to me now. I'm fairly sure it was just after playing ring of crossfire when someone shouted out they'd drop their trousers for the moose any day of the week, and then promptly did. IIRC they flung the slacks at Santa while propositioning the Moose "Bruno style" before the two Jims intervened and carried them to a discreet place where NoBull could help the individual sober up. That wasn't you was it? If it's all a bit hazy and you've been wondering how you got those bruises and chafes in weird places then it was probably when you fell bare-arsed down the carpark steps. I'd left by that point, so can only pass on what I've heard, but I'm sure others will help you piece it all back together.

Brilliant

p.s. btw if I had that tattoo of the 'Intel inside' logo on my cheeks, I'd think twice before waving them in the Moose's direction. Especially when he's full of adrenaline after coming off stage. Those antlers look sharp. Red rag to a bull and all that.

He's had my name covered over?!! How soon they move on..
