Shall we start a new one?

This old quizzer wants to win big

Juliet27 Sun 12-May-19 14:41:43

But the rubbish isn't all mine
It is hers and it's his and that's fine
But I know once it goes
It very soon re-grows
But I know for what's gone I shall pine.

I once had a cat with one eye

I once had a cat with one eye
It didn't hold him back, I won't lie

I once had a cat with one eye
It didn't hold him back, I won't lie
He still hunted mice

I once had a cat with one eye
It didn't hold him back, I won't lie
He still hunted mice
They were caught in a trice

I once had a cat with one eye
It didn't hold him back, I won't lie
He still hunted mice
They were caught in a trice
And “presented” to me by and by

An old bloke from Hackney once said
The best thing he'd done was to wed

Juliet27 Tue 14-May-19 06:48:27

An old bloke from Hackney once said
The best thing he'd done was to wed
As his wife was quite wealthy

An old bloke from Hackney once said
The best thing he'd done was to wed
As his wife was quite wealthy
But not very healthy

An old bloke from Hackney once said
The best thing he'd done was to wed
As his wife was quite wealthy
But not very healthy
He’d be much better off when she’s dead!

I’ve a cousin who’s seven feet tall

I've a cousin who's seven feet tall
He really stands out at the ball

henetha Tue 14-May-19 14:17:15

I've a cousin who's seven feet tall
He really stands out at the ball
But his partner is short

Bellanonna Tue 14-May-19 18:38:08

I've a cousin who's seven feet tall
He really stands out at the ball
But his partner is short
Five feet I’d have thought

Jangran99 Tue 14-May-19 23:53:08

I've a cousin who's seven feet tall
He really stands out at the ball
But his partner is short
Five feet I’d have thought
Beside him she looks like a doll!

Our Dad is a clever old gent

Our Dad is a clever old gent
With courage and brains he's pschent

Juliet27 Wed 15-May-19 07:10:42

Our Dad is a clever old gent
With courage and brains he's pschent
But his luck ran out

henetha Wed 15-May-19 10:20:58

Our Dad is a clever old gent
With courage and brains he's pschent
But his luck ran out
Now he's broke and has gout

lovebeigecardigans1955 Wed 15-May-19 14:11:03

Our Dad is a clever old gent
With courage and brains he's pschent
But his luck rant out
Noe he's broke and has gout
His 'get up and go' - it just went!

A blithering old buffer from Bridport

Juliet27 Wed 15-May-19 17:10:56

A blithering old buffer from Bridport
Remembered how way back he did sport

grandtanteJE65 Wed 15-May-19 17:22:07

A blithering old buffer from Bridport
Remembered how way back he did sport
Now he sits on his couch

Juliet27 Wed 15-May-19 21:04:42

A blithering old buffer from Bridport
Remembered how way back he did sport
Now he sits on his couch
Just a poor old slouch

Jangran99 Thu 16-May-19 08:56:29

A blithering old buffer from Bridport
Remembered how way back he did sport
Now he sits on his couch
Just a poor old slouch
And his squash's in a glass, not the games court

In the kitchen my husband's chaotic

lovebeigecardigans1955 Thu 16-May-19 09:21:04

In the kitchen my husband's chaotic
It doesn't half get on my wick

BradfordLass72 Fri 17-May-19 09:17:28

In the kitchen my husband's chaotic
It doesn't half get on my wick
In the bedroom though he is erotic

Bellanonna Fri 17-May-19 09:23:16

Lbc1955 - first two lines need to rhyme. Hope you don’t mind if I tweak it slightly?

In the kitchen my husband’s chaotic
He insists what he cooks is exotic
It gets on my wick
