This might surprise everyone....a few months ago, I ordered something from Victoria's Secret online lingerie catalogue - the selection around here in Oman is pretty dismal ( so I'm told ) so it seemed like a good idea for a birthday present - easy enough, pay with the visa, 3 weeks later and voila !

Just 2 days ago, as the PRO was sorting mail in the office I happened to walk in to say hello and there is a 2007 catalogue - you can imagine what the cover looked like - racy would be an understatement ! - with my name on it ! We had a bit of a laugh and joked - "haram teacher ! haram ! " so I slunk off with my mail and the catalogue tucked neatly under my arm - the plastic wrapper had not been damaged ( ie browsed at the post office )

So, what do you make of that? It doesn't get any more risque than that, just a few cloth strips short of pornography !

I wonder if they send as many catalogs overseas as they do domestically. If they do, get ready to have this fun little experience happen at least 2-3 times a month!! Embarassed

Not to mention that all these catalog companies sell their lists to each other. I live in the hinterlands and order regularly from catalogs and the net. This time of year, I haul a pile of catalogs over a foot high to the trash once a week. Soon you will get one from every possible lingerie company... Cool
