They're Like What?

[oges]

A married man thought he would give his wife a birthday surprise by buying her a bra. He entered a ladies shop, rather intimidated, but the salesgirls took charge to help him.

"What color?" they asked. He settled for white.

"How much does it cost?" he asked.

"Twenty-four dollars."

"Expensive, but ok," he thought. All that remained was the size, but he hadn't the faintest idea.

"Now sir, are they the size a pair of melons? Coconuts? Grape fruits? Oranges?"

"No," he said, "nothing like that."

"Come on, sir, think. There must be something your wife's bust resembles."

He thought long and hard and then looked up and said, "Have you ever seen a Spaniel's ears?"

There was also the English businessman who wanted to buy a bra for his wife and when confronted with what size he replied she was an '8'. The assistants replied there was no such size. Our gentleman was quite perplexed and replied that there must be, after all his bowler hat was an 8 and one breast fitted in it perfectly.

Reminds me of something ( sorry a couple of things ) I saw yesterday in the Whitsundays!

[Iain]

What, sailors up there wear bowler hats?

[RETIRED]

Boaters perhaps?

I'm sure Shane was talking about some of the sharks up there - plenty of bronze whalers and white pointers!

I wonder did Brett buy lingerie for someone close for Chrissie,hence the joke.

I have been there fellas, and it ain't easy for a guy to buy lingerie for his wife/partner unless thru WEB or other obscure means.

But boy! the benefits outway any discomfort one might had to endure...for instance immediate free grace with the plastic allowing you to run rampant(excuse the pun)with the Plastic until they find out the lingerie dosen't fit and it's for a young lady rather than a more mature personage such as 'er indoors!
Cheers

John, you don't have to be shy about going into a lingerie shop to buy stuff for your wife......just tell them it's for yourself!

his back against the mast
He said 'I'm not leaving here'
