When I was about 10/11 we went on a family trip to London. When there, we went into a museum where it had a miniature display of a room of a country mansion house of the 18th or so Century. I looked through the glass, and thinking myself rather clever, yelled out to my dad "Wow, look at those breasts!". Needless to say every male in the room took a sudden interest in the display as my dad promptly grabbed me away yelling out "Ooooh, you mean BUSTS, Edward, yes BUSTS!" as loudly as he could so everyone could hear.
I've never really lived that down.....
