Jesu S

Geoffrey, a middle-aged British tourist on his first visit to California finds the red light district and enters a large brothel. The madam asks him to be seated and sends over a young lady to entertain him.

They sit and talk, frolic a little, giggle a bit, drink a bit, and she sits on his lap. He whispers in her ear and she gasps and runs away! Seeing this, the madam sends over a more experienced lady to entertain the gentleman.

They sit and talk, frolic a little, giggle a bit, drink a bit, and she sits on his lap. He whispers in her ear, and she too screams, "No!" and walks quickly away.

The madam is surprised that this ordinary looking man has asked for something so outrageous that her two girls will have nothing to do with him. She decides that only her most experienced lady, Lola, will do. Lola has never said no, and it's not likely anything would surprise her. So the madam sends her over to Geoffrey. They sit and talk, frolic a little, giggle a bit, drink a bit, and she sits on his lap. He whispers in her ear and she screams, "NO WAY, BUDDY!" and smacks him as hard as she can and leaves.

Madam is by now absolutely intrigued, having seen nothing like this in all her years of operating a brothel. She hasn't done the bedroom work herself for a long time, but she's sure she has said yes to everything a man could possibly ask for. She just has to find out what this man wants that has made her girls so angry. Besides she sees a chance to teach her employees a lesson.

So she goes over to Geoffrey and says that she's the best in the house and is available. She sits and talks with him. They frolic, giggle, drink and then she sits in his lap.

He leans forwards and whispers in her ear, "Can I pay in Pounds?"

At the current moment, the exchange rate is about 1:1. Obviously, the ladies in the brothel are not up on the current exchange rate. Perhaps, it the difficulty of finding a bank that will make the trade.

Or, they are up on the current exchange rate, and wondering how much lower the pound will sink.

Haha. Still hear a lot of stories about Americans wanting to pay in Dollars.

P.S. Please send food parcels.

It's funny.

Many countries are dumping dollars to prop up their own currency.

It's not that the dollar is strong...though everyone on TV will say that...and while technically it is...but only relative to everything else. The trend is down across the board...
The fact is...currency across the globe is taking a hit...the worlds economies are all shrinking.
Inflation in the US dollar is rippling outwards...it's all connected.

None of it is...good news...for anyone...especially the USA.

A few shoes drop...and things could get out of control easily.

Also, there's a conversion fee for foreign currency.

Ahem, guys...from the Urban Dictionary:

"pounding is a word used to describe sexual activity. but not just any sexual activity, pounding is like screwing to the extreme, with no regard to romance at all."

Get it?

Same thing here.a guy goes to a brothel and tell the madam that he wants it a very specific way so the madam wives at one of her girls and they both go into a bedroom and in a few minutes the guy comes back to the madam and tells her that her girl wouldn't do it the way he wanted so she waves to another more experienced girl and off they go and again he returns with the same problem.after this she decides to take care of him so of she goes with him.when they get into bed she asks " So how do you want it..he reply "On credit".

As a Brit:
The way the pounds be going recent that feels like a rather similar proposition!
