There must be a way to find out,
If whisky really causes gout.
I cannot believe what you've got up your sleeve,
But "go on-have a good shout"!

I'm a whisky drinker it's true
that I like to have a few
In porridge it's fine
but I'll take mine
with ice. Be it one cube or two.

What do YOU like on your porridge?

Hello to my friends, everywhere
Whatever you are doing there
I salute you with my heart
That's so little from my part

Hello to my friends, everywhere
Whatever you are doing there
I salute you with my heart
That's so little from my part
but foes of A2K..Beware!

All for one and, yes, one for all,
Scratch my back and I will play ball,
Do unto others

Scratch my back and I will play ball.
Do unto others as if they are brothers
Or you'll find yourself in the hall.

There was a young lady from Totnes
Who had a bit of a hotness
But she sold herself dear...

over many a year
for enough cash to change her address

It rained 8 days outta 7

I holiday'd once in Devon
It rained for 8 days outta 7
Cyclonic depression
Led to a transgression

There was a young man from Venus
Who had an enormous boat
He saw a girl called Jude
Swimming in the sea
And he wished this limerick rhymed.

Forgot the rain any how
For it was too wet to plow

For it was too wet to plow.
So we went to the pub for some booze and some grub
And had some fun with a cow.

Improbable dreams can come true
And I can count more than a few
They give me a fright
Mostly at night
And always of something quite new

What a wonderful day this has been
The sun came up this morning, again
Sipping on coffee and cream
Tasting the lingering dream



(a dropped ball will bounce a delightful tune)

Herema-

I know that it isn't reasonable to expect residents of Ohio to have a good grasp of the scansion of limericks but it is very difficult for those of us who have to follow your very pretty line with anything remotely resembling what we have contracted to do under the terms and conditions of this thread.

Not that it is anything to worry about.

So-I'll have a do in the interest of hands across the water and all that jazz.

A dropped ball will bounce a delightful tune
If it isn't picked up fairly soon
By a lass with some guile
And a cute little smile
