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.


Very, Very Nice by McGrath of Harlow

We went out late night shopping,
My young brother Arne and me,
To celebrate his birthday -
Arnie's just turned seventy three.
We got chatting with these ladies,
Sally Ann and Mary Lou
"Would you like a birthday present,
Will we come along with you."

"Oh now come on ladies,"
I said, "Do not be absurd."
Well I meant to tell them not to come,
But they took me at my word.
And I'm not sure how it happened,
But they were friendly, I repeat
And Sally said "You nice old men -
Would you like a little treat?

And Mary said "It's warm tonight.
I'm starting to perspire"
So Arnie pulled the curtains
And I turned up the fire
And Sally took her coat off,
As they danced around the living room,
She began by taking off her coat,
And then she took off rather more.

And then they both were dancing
And away the clothing fell
And me and Arnie both agreed,
They were dancing very well.
And naked as a baby,
But rather more mature,
The ladies stood and curtsied.
In a manner quite demure.

Well they said "We've got to freshen up -
We'll be back before you know",
And they slipped out of the living room,
Left us waiting there alone.
And we waited and we waited,
But they seemed a little slow
And we went to find them missing,
They had vanished like the snow.

And we went to find them missing,
They had vanished like the snow,
And so had all our money,
Four thousand pounds or more.
So we told the police about it,
And they cordoned off the town
And they swore that they would help us,
And the villains would be found.

They rounded up some ladies,
And they stood them in a row.
When you wandered up and down the line,
It made a lovely show.
And we made a close inspection
But we still weren't very sure,
So to help us make our minds up,
We inspected them once more.

And they never found the ladies
So we've written off the loss.
But when you're getting on like us,
You don't make too much fuss.
And though that birthday present
It came at quite a price,
Both me and Arnie both agree,
They were very very nice.
