Mmmm. Go to any well-to-do social event in the Netherlands at the weekend and you will see plenty of middle-class Dutch people wearing muted-primary-colored trousers of various shades...

Ugh, I had to deal with a couple of British tourists in Arnhem Land just recently, both wearing the full safari suit with pith helmet; the bloke insisted on lecturing a couple of locals about aboriginal culture, as if he might know more about it than they do (being aboriginal as they were, I mean what would they know?). The chick kept crapping on about how they were somewhere completely undiscovered by man (ignoring the fact that there’s 16000 people living there right this minute and it’s not exactly a rare destination for non aboriginal people these days)

i imagine these are the types to wear red trousers on planes. For the avoidance of doubt they weren’t even that old (late 50s-early 60s perhaps). The bloke didn’t have a bag but the woman had an Emirates brag tag so at least the BA forum is off the hook 😉

Shouldn’t the shoes be suede?

I was just in a boarding queue at LHR and they called boarding for red trousered pax before group 1. I tried to argue that my mustard corduroys were entitled to priority boarding as well but they weren’t having it

I’m heading to T5 shortly and I can’t tell you how tempted I am to wear my red jeans (that I bought in a weak moment that don’t see the light of air very often!)
