Before going to the party, I attempted to let out a pair of trousers. More out of academic curiosity about how one does this than any expectation the end result would be usable. Unfortunately the material has discoloured a bit so it's very obvious to see where they've been let out.

The only photo I took at Christian's birthday. of the birthday cakes.
