Is there any truth in this?
and how did the rumour start dunno

A few years back we were at a friends house and the same subject came up just as my little lad who was playing in he garden and then all of a sudden ran past waving a length of pampas grass.
We all burst into fits of laughter.
Some one also said that you can tell a swinger in a supermarket because they are the ones that buy tiger bread dunno

But saying that I've always had a thing for Mariella and her sexy voice so if she is on the site and would like to drop me a Pm I am free tomorrow night :giggle:

The rumour started in the Seventies after a sitcom had a sketch about it. Since then the "joke" turned into fact.
Even Wiki reports it as an urban myth
Looks like the joke is on the Daily Mail again lol

I bought a house 3 years ago - a huge clump of it was in the front garden.
The neighbours are all lovely - very friendly.
