When a trainee train driver, some decades ago, I was being mentored in use of a vacuum braked train, and the slow apply/slow release, of the brakes, as they operated sequentially from the locomotive.
The driver said ‘ its quite hard, especially when you’ve got a length on’ which provoked a good deal of childish laughter from myself, and the guard.
It’s one I will likely never forget.

Years ago.....maybe 35 years myself and a mate were giving a lift to a much older guy.....he was in the back.
Early morning, dual carriageway A49 and the older guy says....... "I was up early, had a cup of tea then gave my wife one".
I was crying/laughing so much that (dual carriageway) I was forced to pull over.
The older guy sat there saying "what's up, what have I said".
I still see that mate and it still causes belly laughs

I can still remember my inner chuckle when an older lady colleague mentioned to her female colleague in a conversation I overheard...
'My husband gave me a lovely pearl necklace last night'

Who knows, perhaps they were incredibly enlightened for their age...or maybe it's because it was actually her birthday the day before.

There have been a pair of Tits looking at my nest box just as I was about to clean it out.

sorry, meant to post on the wildlife thread.
I teach biology. There are always tits in exam questions. Question setters cruel joke on hormonal teenage boys!
You get a better class of euphemism (euphoniumism) in brass band world where it is all bell ends and fingering

Back to nature -

One of Samantha’s pursuits is keeping bees. She already has three dozen or so. An expert handler is coming round to give a demonstration. He’ll carefully take out her 38 bees and soon have them flying around his head.

RIP Iain Pattinson.
