Yes, that would have been quite a leap from shorts.

the thief had seen you before, and was hoping that your revolutionary trousers was in the bag! Clearly a jealous runner.
How suplovely that someone interfered and stopped him! Cora thinks it must have been the moral dog leading the way to stop crime.

I went to a lake the other day to swim, and a family came and set down next to me. They were very lovely indeed. First, the mother instructed their kid to pee in the water right next to me, where I was planning to go into the water. OK, I understand that kids pee in the water quite a lot when noones looking, but it really shouldn’t be on the mothers orders. This is in the forest, there are trees and bushes all around that he could have easily gone behind. Then the father started changing into his swimming gear. He went for a 10 minute swim in 22 degrees water, and for that, he needed a wetsuit. It was quite hilarious, he was of course the only one wearing that, most of the other people there stayed in the water much longer without being cold at all, and he was swimming around us trying to look superimportant in his wetsuit. Hehe. But, of course, I now see there could be something to it. Maybe you should start wearing one in case thieves steal your clothes. Cycling home in a wetsuit would be almost like wearing revolutionary trousers!
