My favourite news story from last week.
In case there's someone who hasn't heard it! (From The Sunday Times, although it has been all over.)
Two late-night drunks attacked a pair of cross-dressing men, but got more than they bargained for when their victims turned out to be professional cage fighters on their way to a fancy dress party. [I think it was a stag do.]
Daniel 'Lionheart' Lerwell, 23, and James 'Lights Out' Lilley, 22, were walking through Swansea late at night when they faced taunts of "Nice dress, gay boy!" from two men. One then threw a punch at James, who was wearing a pink wig and hot pants. James and Daniel, wearing a short black dress, suspenders and stockings, felled the attackers. After retrieving their handbags, the cage fighters left the culprits dazed on the ground.
Daniel, 13 stone and a trained plumber, said he'd been particularly proud of his appearance as his mum had helped put on his make-up. "It's a sorry state of affairs when a guy can't safely walk down the street in a mini-skirt and make-up without getting grief from some idiot."
And here's a video - go to around the 1 minute mark. :) (Using my Ianto icon, since obviously Welsh men are made of awesome!)
