Summary
Do you ever sit and watch or listen to The Wittering Whitehalls, thinking "I wonder what, exactly, Mr Whitehall is reading at the moment." Has that ever cropped up?

Once that's out the way, it's time for a fasting diet, a bit of bodging together and the answer to the question "what should I do with my old, lucky pants?"
