Suspenders, journalism and Schubert


It's just gone 10:30am and today I've already.

1) Written about the dangers of suspenders. Not the sort of danger they could do to a woman wearing them but the power of distraction they have over chaps. Suspenders are a leading cause of high blood pressure among men and I have no-doubts that they have caused fatalities.

2) Done some proper journalism. I've been investigating something that 'the man' is doing and he shouldn't be. It's not quite Watergate but I have been phone-fencing with government officials and obliquely finding out things all morning.

3) Drunk too much coffee so I’m either bouncing around the room to Schubert or typing nonsense on blogs instead of working.

The suspenders are connected with a government plot to kill off men before they become pensioners?

Just a guess.

Moo!

Quite possibly, but what a way to go.

Damned uncomfortable, all that chafing of the calves and bald patches on the shins. These days I'm happy to resort to those super-elasticated socks.

Kevin - Even though you have given in, do you still see their charm?
