High Wycombe is a small community and that is why this volume of condom sales is rather odd. Either the locals are engaging in a great deal of "how's your father" or people from surrounding villages are patronising this store.

You may want to get humblegunner and Eaker to provide some wry commentary on this one...

Another thought comes to mind: dope smugglers.

I'll have to ask a friend of mine about this story since he lives in a village near High Wycombe.

It is odd. I haven't spent a great deal of time in Britain, but from what I've gathered, they're not overly shy about sex or buying condoms, so I doubt that's the explanation. Perhaps some investigative journalist needs to tour this small town to see what's going on. I'll volunteer... (on seconds thoughts, maybe I don't wanna know...)

Well, High Wycombe is small. Really small. I doubt that they have 1,000 people. That means that there is a lot buggery afoot.

How far is High Wycombe near a major population center? Queers in the US use a lot of state and national parks outside big cities for meet-up places. Maybe High Wycombe is one the way to a major cruising spot.
To: Welsh Rabbit
How far is High Wycombe near= How far is High Wycombe from
Maybe High Wycombe is one the way= Maybe High Wycombe is on the way
To: Welsh Rabbit
It is in Buckinghanshire and is about 30 miles from the centre of London.

Correction on the population. When I said that High Wycombe is quite small, I was thinking of a nearby village. High Wycombe has a population of about 60,000. However, that does not detract from the fact that this one store ranks 4th in condom sales in a national chain that numbers 280 stores.

I just hope everyone in that town uses Hefty bags. They are gonna need the 3-ply strength to handle the load.
To: Army Air Corps
I saw condoms at the 99 cents store the other day - who would buy those? :-)

A model of self control.

I'm still waiting for the Reagan/Russia condom joke, among
others.
Say, what is that guy doing with a Howitzer muzzle cover
on his head?
