In olden days, a glimpse of stocking
Was looked on as something shocking.
But now, God knows,
Anything goes.
Good authors too who once knew better words
Now only use four-letter words
Writing prose.
Anything goes.
If driving fast cars you like,
If low bars you like,
If old hymns you like,
If bare limbs you like,
If Mae West you like,
Or me undressed you like,
Why, nobody will oppose.
When ev'ry night the set that's smart is in-
Truding in nudist parties in
Studios.
Anything goes.

Not what I meant to say , and overheard by my boss who came to my rescue , luckily she bought the pearl necklace and saw the funny side . ( though as I'm writing this and reliving the moment it's not as funny as when it happened )
I feel for you susan

I just looked her up and down a bit and said .... 'Well, yes!.'

I do replace them when they all get chipped.
