Dressing Gown And Slippers

 I got up extra early yesterday morning so as to be prepared for Damian coming round with his big hammer to knock down walls. 

Question: Why are you so reluctant to let people see you in dressing-gown and slippers?

Answer: Because I don't want them mistaking me for an old man. 

Crushing response: But you are an old man.

Anyway, it was wasted effort- as was the tension headache that went with it- because Damian called in sick.
