Floaties lost at sea

MORE than 130,000 inflatable breasts have been lost at sea, en route to Australia. :shock:
A men's magazine was planning to include the plastic boobs as a free gift with its January issue.
The cargo is worth about $200,000, which is another blow for magazine publisher ACP's parent company PBL, which is already in $4.3 billion debt.
The container left docks in Beijing two weeks ago but turned up empty in Sydney this week.
The magazine has put out an alert to shipping authorities to see if they have the container, but if they don't turn up in the next 48 hours it will be too late for the next issue.
Editor Santi Pintado said: "If anyone finds any washed up on a beach, please let us know."
