Australia Mysteriously Deprived of Inflatable Breasts

I didn't think there would be anything to top the 'Viagra as sports medicine' story so soon, but fate has intervened with the news that,sadly, the Land Down Under has had a shipment of 130,000 inflatable breasts go astray en route from Beijing to Sydney:

The breasts, worth £100,000, were planned to be a free gift in Ralph magazine - but vanished before arriving at their destination.

A spokeswoman said the container left docks in Beijing two weeks ago but turned up empty in Sydney this week.

The magazine has put out an alert to shipping authorities but the breasts need to turn up in the next 48 hours to make the January issue.

Ralph editor Santi Pintado urged anyone with information to contact the magazine, saying: "Unless Somali pirates have stolen them it's difficult to explain where they are.

Somewhere tonight there have to be some incredible practical jokes going on.

I don't even live in Australia, and yet that story upsets me greatly.

Pirates plundered 130k infatable breasts? lolz

Borrowing from Bob-n-Tom:
The missing container has been named the "Tit-tanic".

I can see it now. The thieves open the crates somewhere off the coast of (insert name here), dump the goods, and millions of boobs float to shore. Later that day.....

"Wildlife conservation experts were called to rescue beached sea creatures only to discover they were inflatable breasts. Children in the area have been turning the mess into fun by using the items as beach balls and personal flotation devices. Several men in the nearby community are also out "cleaning" up the "spill".

"I just want to lend a hand and keep the beach clean.....what I do with them later is no ones concern" said Matt, a local tavern owner.

Thanks for keeping us abreast of the situation, CM.

I find the whole situation to be titillating.

Strangely, this was not mentioned on either of the news bulletins I watched last evening!! Tit for Tat I guess.

What an udderly tragic news. We can only hope the thieves are sufficiently familiar with the milk of human kindness to return the goods.

(Please shoot me. Repeatedly.)
