tubbies

source: http://www.teletubbies.com This morning, the annual drill with the emergency chutes took place @ Coma HQ. We were instructed by the boss of the company that installed the equipment in somewhat unorthodox "English", the highlight of which is his persistent use of sockets for socks. "End now you must put on se protecktiff overohl end sis sockets instett off your shoes." He always comes with a suitcase full of said protective overalls and socks and reminds us not to take any files or handbags with us in case of a real emergency. Well, the files I'd be only to happy to leave behind, but my HANDBAG. Excuse ME!

Staff from offices across the road and innocent passers-by got the unexpected highlight of their day when they saw inmates of Coma HQ unceremoniously land just above pavement level, dressed in fetching blue overalls and padded socks sockets. Très chic!

That must have been a sight! I wish I could see that, too. Did you get to keep the "sockets", at least? And did you, after all, manage to take your handbag?

Ka-ma: We had to return the (potentially germ-infested) "sockets" and as it was no real emergency, there was no need to evacuate my precious handbag...
