Sorry Clive.

Got bored, saw the article, and my sense of humor went crazy.
I wonder, just wonder, if eBay has noticed the 'mistake'.....hmmmm.

Hey, we Italians have our own perceptions of the world and its languages -- for instance, at one birth the father couldn't make it so the uncle showed up. When asked what the name of the child was to be he told the nurse, "Denise" -- asked later what would he have said had it been a boy, he shrugged his shoulders and replied, "Da nephew"......

Maybe the seller is aiming at a Swedish audience? "Sex" is "six" in Swedish. tongue.gif
YeOldeCollector
It's six in Latin too! tongue.gif
