  4. Nearly rented a flat off him, but couldn't stomach waking up every day to the red trousers.

    1. if you rent a flat from someone do you wake up every day next to their trousers? OR am I being naive?

  9. There was a cartoon in the Architect's Journal while he was president of the RIBA where a very similar character was known as "FRED Trousers".........

  10. This man is standing for Bristol Mayor right now. So there could be A LOT of red trousers on display every day if he gets in..

  12. I think George is arguably the most famous aficionado and general proponent of the RT movement. He's already got a CBE, surely his dedication to such decadent leg wear deserves a bump up to Sir?
