What's a more appropriate wardrobe choice for visiting your smallest brother in prison - 1974 Stark Expo or sparkley Thor and Loki?

Shouldn't that question be...What's the most appropriate wardrobe choice to take to your smallest brother in prison as his clean clothes while you take all his other clothes away to very kindly 'wash' them all for him?

:)

And either outfit would do - in fact why not leave both with him just in case his clothes get 'accidently' damaged in your washer.

In fairness, he did actually ask me to swap clothes with him, though I think it was more in order to sneak out and watch the MotoGP and catch up on Game of Thrones than because he really WANTED a bright purple dinosaur hoodie with pink spikes. Sadly, there is no way a 6'2", nine stone Prawn is going to pass for his 6', twelve stone sister, so our plotting was in vain.

(Oh, and I went with sparkley Thor and Loki in the end. Everyone's jailhouse experiance should contain sparkley pagan gods at some point.)

Firstly - wow are you really 6 foot! I imagined you as a 5 footer like me!

Secondly - where is the Prawn really? has he moved out or have you moved out or ... neither!

Thirdly - where is everyone else? ... or is everyone else on IOM really in prison?

Yep, I am full-on Amazon, except you cannot use me to buy cheap DVD box sets via the internet. It's weird, when I talk to people online, I always imagine them as being slightly different versions of me (imagine the scene from Being John Malkovich where John Malkovich sees everyone as having his head superimposed over his own head) and I'm always really suprised when someone's like, "I'm American" or "I'm a dude" or "I can make toasters sing to me" because in my head, I've been talking to a reflection of myself and I'm not any of those things!

Secondly, the Prawn really IS in jail - only Isle of Man jail, which is so slack that people here call it Jurby Hilton, but still. Last summer he got caught with a shitload of weed (bad) and a few ounces of cocaine (REALLY bad). He gets sentanced later this month, but he admitted it pretty much right away and went in on remand last August.

I have also moved out, but to a flat in the thriving metropolis that is Douglas, our fair capital, rather than prison, which means the Prawn gets better TV reception than I do but I can go online and look at pictures of Colin Farrell whenever I like.

Buzz Lighthair is in Leeds doing an architecture course and, I don't know, serenading posters of Zac Efron in his free time. Johnny and Hayley bought her parents house and moved in there, and my parents are a giant bag of broken-marriage crazy that I try to steer clear of lest I be sucked into their maelstrom of hateful bitchery.

And the rest of the Isle of Man... well, the people are mostly trapped in a prison of PURE INBREED, but the island itself is SUPER PRETTY and not very much like prison, so I call it a win!
