Masculine Logic.

Earlier today I was in our local post office. There was a chap in front of me in the queue with two parcels to post, one rectangular, the other a well-wrapped cardboard tube. The first one went through their lovely little plastic letterbox thingy like a dream but the tube? Alas no, so it was going to cost him extra in postage. He asked to have the tube back, he stood on it gently bouncing up and down to flatten it et voila! It fitted.
It would never have occurred to me to do that but it was a straightforward solution to a problem - a typically masculine solution. DD

I'm still trying to work out what one might put into a tube that would withstand such treatment. :? (I speak as a mere woman.)If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

I've been musing over that too - it's usually posters that are wrapped in a tube but you wouldn't flatten one of those, would you? Well, I wouldn't but maybe a bloke would. DDHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0

DD-What you all fail to say is that there is only one male logic, the RIGHT one!0
