I was feeling a bit down having had another poor night's sleep trying to clear congestion most of the night. My very nice lady Oxygen Manager told me that K Y Jelly was very good for the nasal soreness associated with Oxygen Cannula (which I had heard here and elsewhere before) She burst out laughing when I said that asking for it at my local chemist might cause a few raised eyebrows as I am 82, but they might just think that I've had miracle cure and a new lease of life. She said that I should go in and shock them all by saying "K Y Jelly please and give me the biggest tube that you've got." When I said "And two dozen condoms," she almost wet herself laughing.
I left the clinic feeling happier and smiled when I saw the interested expressions on the faces of the next couple of patients waiting.

Remember many years ago, In the days when stores had young Saturday girls. My g/f at the time had a 8 yr old Son, I brought him a 6ft snooker table, With no triangle for the reds. So we went into a a sports shop 1 Saturday for a triangle for a 6ft snooker table, The young lady went off, then came back and said, I need to know how big your balls are, Then blushed with Embarrassment, when she realised what she had asked, It made my day at the time lol
