I’ve found a quantum of  solace in playing dressup at costume themed parties of late. Keeping up with my own fascination for medieval/fantasy personalities, I decided to go with Robin Hood. Not just any Robin Hood, but the ‘Men in Tights‘ version of Robin Hood.

Thankfully, despite the new Riddley Scott’s ‘Robin Hood‘ being a terrible flick it was enough to remind people (including me) of the legend. So half of my job of convincing the people was already done, ya know?

The biggest fear I had with this whole get-up were the tights. Without the tights, there would be no punch line…

So with a big fat gulp,
I donned my bow and quiver.
Slapped on my fresh green tights,
And braved the cold with a shiver.
