Not for the lads, for a very good cause.
A law firm has distanced itself from a woman who flashed her tatas at a charity event.
The young lady appears to have become overwhelmed at the Cornflower Ball, an annual fundraiser in aid of the Spinal Injuries Association.
Perhaps it was the booze, or perhaps it was the thrill of being in a room full of lawyers from numerous personal injury firms, but during the evening she made the bold decision to pop out her bosom for the event’s fixed video camera.
SIA’s social media team appears not to have checked the clips in advance of publishing the video loops on the internet, resulting in multiple calls to the charity, more calls to the law firm concerned, and a hasty removal of the offending material. But not before it went viral in the PI community.
The openminded guest was sitting at a table hosted by CFG Law, but the firm was clear with RollOnFriday that she had nothing to do with CFG, and had been allocated to its table along with a wheelchair rugby world champion by organisers.
RollOnFriday has hidden the woman’s features and is not identifying her, because anyone can be forgiven for getting overexcited in the company of catastrophic injury lawyers from Irwin Mitchell and Slaters.

You may have blanked out part of her face in that image, but more of it is visible in the neighbouring photo where she's playing a bit of tonsil tennis...
Thanks My eyes, my eyes: We thought she was sufficiently obscured in that clip, but have amended the gif to blot out her face just in case.
Gosh, @08:56, she really was having a good night out.
"RollOnFriday has hidden the woman’s features and is not identifying her"
Translation: we would refer you to Google to search for her
Free the face
mate I don't want to be the woke mob here but isn't calling the firm and charity over a tiny nip flash a bit ott
"SIA’s social media team appears not to have checked the clips in advance of publishing the video loops on the internet, resulting in multiple calls to the charity..."
... enquiring - on behalf of a friend - how they might procure tickets to next year's event and whether the young woman in question had plans next Saturday at all?
She seems fun.
It’s just a nipple…
"isn't calling the firm and charity over a tiny nip flash a bit ott"
Yes it is.
I wish there was some kind of New New World that we could shove all of the Neo-Puritans off to*.
But I doubt the charity minds particularly, this is the best publicity they've had in decades. They'll be queueing down the road for next years tickets even if they double the prices.
*e.g. Alpha Centauri
Call them old-fashioned, but a lot of people 'still' regard women flashing their boobs in a public setting as controversial. I know! People think it's not totally cool and groovy for adults to flash their erogenous zones! Crazy, right?
You can chunter on all you like about sex-positivity and snort at the prudes, but until you put your money where your mouth is and start attending client meetings in the nud, pipe down.
Women should be free to get their puppies out whenever they like.
Total hypocrisy and double standards.
Whip your boob out in a crowded public place for the purposes of feeding a baby. Totally fine.
Whip your boob out in the privacy of a photo booth for the purposes of titillating a balding chap in a waistcoat who you then go on to maul the face of as if you've only eaten yoghurt for a month. Everyone loses their minds about it.
And don't even think about whipping your todger out for a bit of a waggle on your morning run as you head past the local Catholic Primary Sch... actually, hang on a second, that one isn't remotely ok.
Call me crazy but I like seeing boobs.
"Catastrophic" is an appropriate term for Irwin Mitchell and Slaters, but I'm impressed that you had the gumption to use it!
This reminds me of Janet Jackson's "wardrobe malfunction" at the superbowl. On the phone-in shows the following day some radio stations were bleeping the word 'nipple'.
I know exposing your boobs is still borderline taboo in parts of UK society but it wasn't that long ago you could see naked breasts in the newspaper. Anyone clutching their pearls over this should probably shut their curtains and never leave the house again.
Lovely.
Degenerate, but lovely.
It's been great reading all the sanctimonious comments on the Oliver Bretherton article. Meanwhile, flashing your tits at a work event is fine but if it was a man with his cock out there would be outrage.
I blame myself for being absent during her life
I want a regular update on this woman.
She brought the profession into disrepute.
Forgive me, but I'm more interested in who that fine chap with the shiny pate is and how he feels about it all..?
And we all know what Irwin Mitchell lawyers do when faced with a screen with nudity on it...
Who would notice another tit in a room full of personal injury lawyers?
