was invited to his bird's parents' posh house in the country for a party, he asked her how he should dress, 'Fancy' was the response.
So he decided to go as Travelling Plaid Man, wearing plaid/tartan shirt, suit, tie, shoes, socks, pants and hat and carrying a selection of tartan luggage.
Turns out she meant 'fancy' as in 'smart' and poor Johan got very embarrassed when he turned up for the swanky do.

but unfortunately I live in a shoebox - I have one room with bed/kitchen facilities and a bathroom. So there's really no room for visitors, sorry...
