Starting 8 with the end of 7

The neighbours are out in the garden today
Cutting grass with the mower they bought on Ebay
But the blades are too blunt
So they took a punt
And let the lawn turn to hay.

45 degrees! I know I'd not cope

I've decided I'm done with ironing
The iron keeps fusing my wiring
Creased shirts are cool
That’s now my rule
To much better things I'm aspiring

I'd quite like to learn how to sail

I'd quite like to learn how to sail
It should be a breeze no fail

I've decided I'm done with ironing
The iron keeps fusing my wiring
Creased shirts are cool
That’s now my rule
And one which I find most inspiring

A young man left his home in Tralee

Must learn to refresh!!!

Bellanonna Sun 28-Jul-19 22:33:38

I'd quite like to learn how to sail
It should be a breeze no fail
Whether lake or sea

I'd quite like to learn how to sail

Whether lake or sea
You'll see new sailor me

I'd quite like to learn how to sail
It should be a breeze no fail
Whether lake or sea
You'll see new sailor me
And if I fail to return, don't wail.

My sailing lessons are going really well

I'd quite like to learn how to sail
It should be a breeze no fail
Whether lake or sea
You'll see new sailor me
Clinging desperately on to the rail

A desert island could be quite nice

Amagran Sun 28-Jul-19 23:36:49

Oh no! I've done it again - sorry crazyH!

My sailing lessons are going really well
I haven't yet sunk, only time will tell

crazyH Sun 28-Jul-19 23:38:45

A desert islandcould be quite nice
No stylish clothes, no fried rice

crazyH Sun 28-Jul-19 23:42:15

Amagran.....we are a pair ?Shall we carry on with the desert island - your turn

callgirl1 Sun 28-Jul-19 23:52:21

A desert island could be quite nice
No stylish clothes, no fried rice
Just coconuts a-plenty

crazyH Mon 29-Jul-19 00:40:03

A desert island could be quite nice
No stylish clothes, no fried rice
Just coconuts a-plenty
And fresh fish, at least twenty

Amagran Mon 29-Jul-19 01:07:43

Thank you crazyH!

A desert island could be quite nice
No stylish clothes, no fried rice
Just coconuts a-plenty
And fresh fish, at least twenty
And no politics, Brexit or vice

We could take one luxury and one book

Amagran Mon 29-Jul-19 01:13:59

Sorry crazyH - I hadn't spotted that we didn't finish your sailing lessons - let's do it after this.

Jangran99 Mon 29-Jul-19 08:01:34

From your start crazyH

My sailing lessons are going really well
I haven't yet sunk, only time will te
At bailing I'm a pro,

My sailing lessons are going really well
I haven't yet sunk, only time will te
At bailing I'm a pro,
Though I might be rather slow

If I get into trouble I'll yell.

I may need an intrepid troubleshooter

I may need an intrepid troubleshooter
One with a big bucket, or a computer!

grandtanteJE65 Mon 29-Jul-19 14:04:22

I may need an intrepid troubleshooter
One with a big bucket, or a computer!
And a radio "Sparks"

One with a big bucket, or a computer!

Oh what larks!

One with a big bucket or a computer!
And a radio "sparks"
O what larks!
Here comes my mum on a scooter.

My mum's an intrepid motor biker

My mum's an intrepid motor biker
But was once a very keen hiker

My mum`s an intrepid motor biker
But was once a very keen hiker
She`d march up Snaefell

But was once a very keen hiker
She`d march up Snaefell
Muttering, “Oh, this is hell”
