Didn't this topic arise (and get dropped again) in another thread, back in February or early March?

Ben has been adding insult to lingerie.

Some of them defy belief. Whilst I've sold plenty to younger customers, some of the designs appear to me to be totally incompatible with comfort. Others do not. I shall spare the gentlemen a description, I believe the ladies shall know why.

Gossard are bringing in thongs-to-be-seen-in for New Year. They comprise elaborate jewellery at the rear. They have already sold slightly less grandiose designs very successfully, and thongs in general now outsell briefs, but are only popular within a certain age range.

Thongs for men? But of course a serious lingerie entrepreneur would have tried those himself to further his understanding of the trade ---

Yoiu know, I've got a great jopke that'd fit in perfectly here, but I suspect I'd get shouted down again...

Anyway, what else do you think inspired Bach to write 'Air on a G-String'?

*big groan* Where do you store these jokes PSD?

Strangely enough I haven't noticed any musical inspiration or ability from my underwear, I must be wearing the wrong brand.

Gossards bejewelled knickers - Isn't that a teeny bit of a steal from the pearl G-string you can get from Myla, and jolly expensive it is too if you go for the real version!!

Erm, if these are the ones I read about in Rowan Pelling's column for the Sindie, then I'm pretty sure that there are certain, erm, design features that differ from normal thongs.

See
[www.myla.com]

if you want to see what I mean. Don't worry, this link is perfectly clean - there's no model wearing them. For which I'm thankful, actually - my mother just walked in...

If I may be crude for a moment (insert sarcastic laughter here), it isn't just your butt that it'd disappear up.

Exhausted your knowledge of French there, then PSD?

And I don't even want to think about how you clean those advertised underwear.
