Still in holiday scoff mode

Flapjack
Pumpkin and emmenthal cracker with mushroom pate
Miso soup
Spring rolls, prawn toasts, chicken chow mein, beef in black bean sauce, egg fried rice etc etc
1 can of Stella

Eek. Must remember that I am not walking 10 miles a day and stop eating so much.

Do you want to hear about the orange trousers? Of course you do.

M and I were wandering round an antique market in San Francisco. I was wearing (as I had been doing so for the past 2 days) a pair of bright, bright orange trousers. Not only are they flourescent, but they are rather large. They are very wide and baggy. Their diameter at the bottom of the leg is roughly 2 foot.

Out of the blue, a very gay man in his early 40s comes up to me, grabs me by the arm and says (very loudly) "It's the lady with the orange pants! We SO love your pants, we've been watching your pants for the past two days."

I said "Thank you very much" and wanted to disappear into the ground. I wonder if wearing large orange pants in San Francisco means something. Is it a code I wonder?
