The fairer sex
I live very near to a primary school and at break time when all the kids are out in the playground the loudest noise is always coming from the girls. Is this training for there teen and later years? I have always noticed at weddings, parties, nights out etc, it's always the female voices that are loudest.

Re: The fairer sex
The noise is invariably due to each lady trying to out speak the others and so the more of them the louder it gets. A strange incident occurred the other day when my wife and I were at a very pleasant Greek owned restaurant for tea and tabnabs
There was a party of nine ladies at a table next to us all jovialy speaking Greek and each one was allowed by the others to speak without interruption.
I remarked to my wife on this strange phenomenon and shortly before we left they apologised to my wife in case they had been annoying due to too much noise!
They were all good looking and I had enjoyed watching the gestures which accompanied the words
Wonders never end.

There was a guy I know who told hid wife he had just killed three flies, one male two female.
How do you know their sex she asked.
Simple he said, one on a beer can, two on the phone.
