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'm yearning for a bag of crisps
But these are all broken, in crumbs and wisps!
So I'll have salted nuts
Though my dietician tuts
And I'll eat healthy apples, even the pips.

But today it's strawberries and fattening cream!

I may now be persona non grata
Don't worry, I'm in your alma mata
I'll try to keep my rhymes clean
(That remains to be seen)
While I'm thinking I'll cook a frittata

I think I am going quite bonkers
Instead of onions I cooked conkers
And now, for a drink,
Pear cider I think,
Which may produce some unladylike stonkers blush shock

An earl sat on a chair with a dubious leg
It buckled beneath him so he sat on a beer keg
Oh no, that's not done
I've had too much sun
Bring me a sun hat, I beg!

I like your ideas grandtanteJE65, but to follow the limerick format I think we need a short line whose last word rhymes with 'done'. Something like 'Said his wife who's no fun', (but it doesn't have to be that).

Then its off to the pub for a glass
If I wasn't a lady, I would rhyme it with a--e
Well, it wont rhyme with bum!
This limericks a bit rum

One day a lonely woodworm left her floorboard home
She was looking for company, so decided to roam
She chewed into a chair
Found a male woodworm there
And now the chair leg looks like a comb
