Another one...At another party full of strangers and distant aquaintances. So I'm chatting away to this lass who's a friend of a friend. Anyway, it's starting to die a little so I decide to throw out a conversational gambit. 'So, when's the baby due?' I ask brightly. "I'm not pregnant, just fat,' she replies deadpan. Imagine my embarrassment when a friend asks the girl exactly the same question half and hour later – making it look as though I've put him up to it.
