A young matelote wanted to purchase a gift...
A young matelote wanted to purchase a gift for his new sweetheart's birthday
and as they had not been dating very long he sought advice from her sister.
After careful consideration, and bearing in mind some advice from the
sister, he decided a pair of gloves would strike the right note - romantic
but not too personal.
Accompanied by his sweetheart's younger sister, he went to Marks and
Spencer's and bought a pair of white gloves. The sister purchased a pair of
panties for herself.
During the wrapping, the clerk mixed up the items and the sister got the
gloves leaving the panties to go to the sweetheart..
Without checking the contents, the young man sealed the package and sent it
to his sweetheart with the following note:
"I chose these because I noticed that you are not in the habit of wearing
any when we go out in the evening. If it had not been for your sister, I
would have chosen the long ones with the buttons but she wears short ones
that are easier to remove. These are a delicate
shade, but the lady I bought them from showed me the pair she had been
wearing
for the past three weeks and they are hardly soiled.
I had her try yours on for me and she looked really smart. I wish I was
there to put them on for you the first time as no doubt other hands will
come in contact with them before I have a chance to see you again. When you
take them off, remember to blow in them before putting them away as they
will naturally be a little damp from wearing. Just think how many times I
will kiss them during the coming year !

All my love,
Bungy

P.S. I believe the latest style is to wear them folded down with a little
fur showing.
