I didn't get much banter for that of course.
I once did similar when I rode my push bike across the station to work trailing a pair of light brown tights from the velcro on my flying suit waistband like a sad parody of Biggles' silk scarf. Then walked across the hangar to met brief and back, completely unaware of why everyone was in such a jolly mood. At least I amused many of the station personnel, especially those on the main gate.
