Demon's pants

According to "blogger" this is officially my 500th post on this blog, so I thought I would really let rip with a great post and possibly start the wheels in motion for divorce proceedings in the process. Mike commented that perhaps "demon pants" needed a little more explaining. It is actually far less exciting as it sounds. Basically someone decided to make some huge pants and at the sports day they are used to join people literally at the hip while they are running. One person gets in one leg hole and the other person gets in the other one and they run.... pretty harmless fun... or so we thought! My husband had to get into these "demon pants" twice during the course of the day and they seem to have rubbed some of their demon power off on him.
This morning the children and I (the kids have the day off in lieu of sports day yesterday) were surprised when we heard Tom's car pull up at 9:30am when he should have been hard at work at the town office. A quick race to the bedroom and we discovered that the reason for his early trip home was his trousers.... Somehow he had managed to bend down to pick up some keys (with his boss behind him) and, somewhat like my leg, heard and felt a big RRRRRRIIIIIIIIPPPPPPPPP. That's right - the demon powers that be meant he completely split his trousers and he had to ask special permission to come home and change. Perhaps the demon really does work in mysterious ways!
