What’a mistake to make! A male visitor to a country club ends up in the female
changing room by mistake. He is unaware of this until halfway through his
shower, when two ladies come in and he hears them talking. In panic, all he can
think of is to escape without being recognized. He wraps a towel round his face
and runs naked from the room.
‘My goodness,’ exclaims the first woman, ‘that certainly wasn’t my husband.’
‘Nor mine,’ says the second.
‘In fact,’ continues the first, ‘he’s not even a member of this club.’
