It's a what?

When we went into town last week we went into Clas Ohlson, my L&M wanted to buy some bungee cords.
Whilst wandering around looking for said bungee cords my L&M spotted something interesting.
He picked it up and waved it at me saying, 'Shall I buy one of these?'
Not realising someone was stood directly behind me I replied 'What is it, sex toy?'
Well that's one young man who now knows that even geriatrics have a dirty sense of humour.


And if you don't know, it's a mooring compensator and I have no idea why my L&M wanted to buy one!

Does he have a boat? Or go sailing in bad weather?

"High quality mooring compensators are almost essential for preserving the life of your mooring lines and reducing the stress on your cleats. They absorb tension and dampen shock loading on deck fittings from sudden tugs caused by the elements."

Explains it all, really!!!!

Or - maybe he's thought of an alternative use for it as . . . . . . . a sex toy!!!

It's always important to save wear & tear on your cleats!

We don't have a boat, or go sailing in good weather or bad, I can only assume it was the shape that amused him.
