A married bloke is a fishing nut. He spends most weekends fishing with his mates. Fnally his wife starts getting pissed off with him being away fishing all the time. The bloke is a bit confused at her annoyance so he asks around the office for advice.
The general advice given is for the bloke to buy his wife a really expensive, sexy outfit of some sort. The bloke doesn't understand why this should help, on account of it's got nothing to do with fishing "So why would anyone be interested?" but he goes off to the flash shops to find a present.
He looks at dresses, shoes, swimwear, you name it, but because he has no idea what size his wife takes he doesn't buy.
Finally, in a lingerie shop an assistant brings out a completely sheer, see-through nightie. He asks the assistant, "What's the point? Ya can see right through it."
"That 'is' the point,' replies the assistant.
'Still completely confused the bloke asks, 'How much?'
'Well Sir. As a matter of fact it's only $495 on special.'
Outraged at spending $495 on a virtually invisible outfit which has nothing to do with fishing the guy agrees to buy it. He takes it home, apologises heaps for going fishing so often then offers the present as a back-up to his apology.
He suggests his wife goes upstairs, puts on the present then do out on the deck outside the bedroom. 'I'll be down in the garden, looking up so I can admire you.'
She agrees. Gets to the bedroom, opens the present, sees the totally see-through nightie and thinks, 'I know what I'll do. I'll strip and go out naked and see what he says.'
She does and calls out, 'So what do you think, dear?'
There is a three second pause then this rather laconic, sad voice calls up, 'Geez. For 495 bucks you'd think they could have ironed the bloody thing.'
