Would now be a good time to broach the subject of ludicrously oversized
umbrellas wielded by pinstriped knuckle-scrapers in the City?

One would've thought their City bonuses could cover the cost of a proper
umbrella.

Clearly having a large umbrella is some sort of phallic compensation
thing, which is why I modestly favour one of those standard black M&S
telescopic ones. They also have that advantage that, when reverse in
the hand, they're potentially far more effective if one suddenly has
the need to **** someone....
