On Friday night, I'm going to a fancy dress party.

However, I'm skint and cannot think for myself so does anyone have any ideas??? (If there was a theme, i'd be ok)

Preferably, it should be possible to make it out of cereal boxes, like my famous "Jaws" outfit I made for a 007 themed party.

Failing that, could someone lend me a pushchair and a Speak'N'Spell so I can do the Stephen Hawking thing??

My then-flatmate saw it in Safeways and asked the manager if he could have it. Bloke says yes. Mate nearly gets arrested on way home for looking suspicious.
