C&A stores can still be found in France, at most major cities.

Reminds me of the Irish labourer, Paddy, who couldn't remember which feet to put his wellies on. His mate, Murphy, said why don't you label them "L" for left and "R" for right. 

Paddy said that's a great idea. I know why missus buys her knickers from C&A now. 

The old one's still make you smile 

Great idea for a new post - your best traditional comedian or joke.

Remember years ago seeing Tommy Mundon at some working mens club.

`My mate went to the Doctor the other day`
Dr- `What is wrong Mr Jones?`
`Well, I have really bad diarrhoea Doctor`
`Oh, when did you find out you have diarrhoea?`
`When I took my bike clips off`
