Arriving late to the changing rooms, Andrew was asked where he’d been. ‘Oh’, he said, ‘I’ve just been upstairs getting my tracksuit trousers’. Unfortunately, Aaron misheard him, thinking he’d used the phrase ’tracksuit trumps’ as a plummy nickname for the good old British PE kit. Cue much ‘ohhh, tracksuit trumps’ mockery in cod-upper class voices. Quite unfair, and probably quite confusing for Andrew, who may have thought that a dangerous new game of tracksuit trumps was being invented.
