A retired couple, Margaret and Bert, moved to Tamworth.
Bert always wanted a pair of R.M. WILLIAMS boots, so, seeing some on sale, he bought them and wore them home.
Walking proudly, he sauntered into the kitchen and said to his wife, 'Notice anything different about me?'
Margaret looked him over. 'No Darl'
Frustrated, Bert stormed off into the bathroom, undressed and walked back into the kitchen completely naked except for the new R.M. Williams boots.
Again he asked Margaret, a little louder this time, 'Notice anything different NOW?'
Margaret looked up and exclaimed, 'Bert, what's different? It's hanging down today, it was hanging down yesterday, it'll be hanging down again tomorrow, 'cause its always that way'
Furious, Bert yelled, 'AND DO YOU KNOW WHY IT'S HANGING DOWN, MARGARET? DO YOU?'
'No Darl', she replied.
'IT'S HANGING DOWN, BECAUSE IT'S LOOKING AT ME NEW R.M. WILLIAMS BOOTS!!!!'
Without changing her expression, Margaret replied, 'Shoulda bought a hat Bert, shoulda bought a hat.'
