Pair Of Pensioners May Be Punters, But They're Not Prudes! -- A pair of Norwegian pensioners robbed by two strippers say they don't mind because it's a long time since they had so much fun.  Arne and Oystein Tokvam, aged 73 and 80, say they invited the women to their home after meeting in a shop.  The women then did a striptease before saying they needed the toilet.  When they failed to re-appear the brothers realised they'd been robbed of £4,600 cash.  "It's too bad about the money, but we just have to take it with good humour," Arne told the Bergens Tidende newspaper.  "We're looking at it as entertainment. Very expensive, but absolutely entertaining."  Local police in the small mountain town of Flam in Sogn og Fjordane are taking the theft far more seriously than its two victims.  They cordoned off a large area around the brothers' home and have warrants out for the two women.


Coortin' With Two Kittens by derrymacash
(Speaking of "Courtin' In The Kitchen", as I did a few entries above, started me musing! And hence –)

Come Nordic bach-el-ores and to me pay attention
Don't ever mess with whores, they're the devil's own invention
We enquired as to the price, it only cost a pittance
And therefore in a trice we were coortin' with two kittens
With me too-rye-too-rye-aye, with me too-rye-too-rye-addy
With me too-rye-too-rye-aye and me too-rye-too-rye-addy

It was eighty years ago, my mother entered labour
My elder brother, Joe, looked on his bro' with favour
And since that fateful day, we've never once been parted
And together all the way, we've never yet been thwarted
With me too-rye-too-rye-aye, with me too-rye-too-rye-addy
With me too-rye-too-rye-aye and me too-rye-too-rye-addy

Our house-guests were sublime, built like two fashion models
And so, before much time, we set to kiss and cuddle
Although long in the tooth, the pair of us were smitten
Bowled over, that's the truth, by the coortin' of two kittens
With me too-rye-too-rye-aye, with me too-rye-too-rye-addy
With me too-rye-too-rye-aye and me too-rye-too-rye-addy

It was on and off the bed and round and round the house, sir
A flash of firm, young leg and a bit of mouth-to-mouth, sir
I felt so energised - 'tween my teeth I had the bit in -
By the sight of long white thighs as we coorted with two kittens
With me too-rye-too-rye-aye, with me too-rye-too-rye-addy
With me too-rye-too-rye-aye and me too-rye-too-rye-addy

The miles upon our clocks began to tell a tale, sir
The girls began to mock as our stamina did fail, sir
"I must now respose, it would be far more fittin'
Than rippin' off the clothes and coortin' with two kittens"
With me too-rye-too-rye-aye, with me too-rye-too-rye-addy
With me too-rye-too-rye-aye and me too-rye-too-rye-addy

We're in the land of Nod; the girls go on a spree, sir
I vow unto my God such a sight you'll never see, sir
They robbed we brothers blind, every furnishin' and fittin'
There was damn all left behind after coortin' with two kittens
With me too-rye-too-rye-aye, with me too-rye-too-rye-addy
With me too-rye-too-rye-aye and me too-rye-too-rye-addy

Me wallet it was cleaned, me biscuit tin was robbed, sir
I'm sure those lovebirds preened at the thought of such a job, sir
Never more again, will I let meself be bitten
No more I'll play the game of coortin' with two kittens
With me too-rye-too-rye-aye, with me too-rye-too-rye-addy
With me too-rye-too-rye-aye and me too-rye-too-rye-addy
