Geoff:
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).
