You must forgive me but I fell about laughing when I read the title of
this thread - and I suspect a number of UK members did the same.....
In addition to the meaning intended, a second meaning of "drawers" is a
now old-fashioned one of "knickers". So it is quite common for
comedians to refer to someone looking in their drawers as a method of
producing gales of laughter and it invoked in my imagination visions of
Filch on a par with Snape with a stuffed vulture on his hat and a big,
red handbag.
Excuse me while I slap my wrists hard and go off to snigger in a quiet
corner.
I think I am suffering from an attack of PHSS (Pre-HBP Silly Syndrome).
