Where can I get a loaner wheelchair?
OK, so I have a DC & Marvel Superhero fancy dress party coming up. Most of the 'decent' characters have gone (we're trying not to duplicate) and I jokingly said I would go as Dr X..... so now I need to find a wheelchair....
Any ideas?

Have been to the last 6 years.
Also, it means I get to sit down all day! 
Next on the list is finding stuff to make a Cerebro helmet / hat thing....

Sounds awesome. I'm no fancy dress fan but we threw some epic parties for birthdays in the UK (my housemate and I were a few days apart). People had to make the effort or they'd be the odd one out.
Enjoy.

Sounds like every party my parents host.
Truth be told, around 90% of the parties I go to back home too.
What's so special about this one?
Oh, you mean people came wearing white...trousers?
