EVEN MORE VERSATILE VERSE !

But make the most of my back garden
If I sing at the barbecue, I do beg your pardon.

It's just I'm excited about Boris's 'bubble'

Tomorrow though the sun will shine
To go on holiday I must not pine

But make the most of my back garden

I'll stay home and light a fire
Today, in particular, the weather’s dire

Tomorrow though the sun will shine

When I step outside it is cool and damp
Not the weather to go and camp

I'll stay home and light a fire

It’s so long since we were all together
We were kept apart throughout the good weather

When I step outside it is cool and damp

We have lots to talk about
the grandchildren will give an excited shout

It's so long since we were all together

Not a good choice to lounge in the water
I have arranged to meet my daughter

We have lots to talk about

Will it be tapas, pasta, pizza or sushi?
Better not drop any in the jacuzzi!

Not a good choice to lounge in the water

Then we can enjoy meals with friends
We can try all the new culinary trends

Will it be tapas, pasta, pizza or sushi?

If only the cafe was open for lunch
But it will be soon, that's my hunch.

Then we can enjoy meals with friends

But today it’s cold so a long walk is planned,
Socially distanced along the strand.

If only the cafe was open for lunch

There's always someone who needs his help
It could be anyone, even myself

But today it’s cold so a long walk is planned

He patrols the beach on a quad bike now
Keeping watch on everyone, I don't know how.

There's always someone who needs his help

Maybe tomorrow I’ll go for a swim
Check first with the lifeguard - not go on a whim

He patrols the beach on a quad bike now

I'd sooner go for a walk instead
With fresh sea air to clear my head

Maybe tomorrow I’ll go for a swim

Shops will reopen and I will spend a lot more
However I find shopping a bit of a chore
I'd sooner go for a walk instead

I'm off for my daily walk in a minute
But some places I like are still off limit

Shops will reopen and I will spend a lot more

But I might just keep it all to myself
I like to see a well-stocked shelf

I’m off for my daily walk in a minute

My cupboards are bulging with stockpiled goodies
Enough to share with neighbourhood foodies..

But I might just keep it all to myself

I don’t like taking all this medication
Should I just swallow them and try? - such deliberation

My cupboards are bulging with stockpiled goodies

*sorry grans

My cupboards are bulging with stockpiled goodies

Who knows if they will cure my ills

I don’t like taking all this medication
Should I just swallow them and try? - such deliberation

My doctor has given me digestion pills
Who knows if they will cure my ills

I don’t like taking all this medication

Then for pudding I’ll eat a very large cream cake
With hot chocolate later if I’m still awake.

My doctor has given me digestion pills
