First Sign of Spring?
On my way back to the apartment today I noticed a young woman standing outside the local police box. She was smiling sweetly and chatting to two policemen. I couldn’t help but wonder if she was there to report her lost skirt. From where I stood she looked as if she was wearing a coat, black tights, and shoes.
She wasn’t the only woman I saw today who was missing a skirt. It’s not that warm yet but I get the feeling that mini skirts are back. When the weather improves I may actually get to see some of the skirts but for now these are hidden somewhere underneath winter coats – or at least I hope they are.

Errr. Short skirt. By phone box. Talking to police. Black tights.
Did she have a pile of postcards in her coat? Was she sticking them in strategic places in the police box?
My conclusions as to what this scene represents somewhat differ from yours…

That would never have crossed my mind!
And the city is full of woman in really short skirts and black tights. I assume it’s something to do with fashion.

Fashion, eh? That is something The Kids know about, isn’t it? My youngest knows of such things.
I know it is degenerately sexist, and it was swm who first told me it, but with mention of short skirts and the first sign of spring, I give you:

Oh dear. Rereading that, it isn’t even funny. Ah well, let myself down. Again.
