I might buy a lamp with crystals galore

Elrel Wed 25-Mar-20 02:01:01

Upstairs, a four-poster and sheets of pure silk

And I'll soak in a bath, full of pure milk.

But for now, all I want is a chance to socialise

But for now, all I want is a chance to socialise
Although the danger you know should not be a surprise

crazyH Wed 25-Mar-20 14:03:22

Should I recycle my bath milk and make a good cuppa
And invite the villagers for a good old natter?
