Without googling the quotation, I’m guessing either Gilbert & Sullivan or Noel Coward. I’m off to google it now…

OP, I imagine it must be hard for you to find a willing dance partner. I suppose you would just have to mill around the cocktail area for a while and banter pleasantries around, until the man of your dreams saunters up to you and says, "Hey there. You know… I like my women like I like my coffee…   
COVERED IN BEES!"

I’m of means that they are from that class.

Some balls are held for charity, and some for fancy dress, but when they’re held for pleasure, they’re the balls that I like best.

P.S. That’s "upper-upper class, I think.

"I’ve got the biggest balls of them all! "

I first heard that on the radio on a long car trip, veeeery late at night. I almost drove off the road.

My balls are always bouncing to the left and to the right. It’s my belief that my big balls should be held every night.
