Would you wear this?


I just wanted to share this image with you so that I can't be accused of not putting any effort into this blogging lark.

On the right, we have Mr Dan Watson. Snowboard bum extraordinaire. On the left, we have a lady who was skiing in Courchevel.

Now it should be said that Dan had previously asked this lady's permission for a photograph and had been rebuffed rather rudely. So we did what any other person would. Chased her down the piste, snuck up behind and took this photo.

I'm sure that some of you out there are thinking that this is childish behaviour, and that making fun of someone afflicted so badly with the rare and debilitating disease "Dressinglikeaclownism" is morally repugnant, but really - I disagree. I believe that it is our responsibility to draw attention to this disease and it's horrible side effects every chance that we get. After all, it could be that your kid's next - and if that's the case, won't you be happier if at least some of the stigma of looking like a complete idiot has been removed?

The thing I can't work out though is why anyone would choose to wear that.

Next time someone refuses to comply with a simple request, do the Hot Fuzz double footed kick to the shnozz.

It's legal.Honest.
