Is there room for one more ?

The WOODMOUSE rules are ...

Add a line to rhyme with the last line
and also a line of your own for the next person.

l hear a knocking at my front door
I hurry across the slippery floor

‘Who’s there ? ‘ I say and to my surprise

I've always wanted to be your Missus
So you can shower me with lots of kisses

I really want to be your runaway bride

I really want to be your runaway bride
So off to Scotland where we can hide,

We can eat haggis and drink Scotch whisky

Elderflower2 Tue 21-Jul-20 16:29:07

We can eat haggis and drink Scotch whiskey
By the lochs where the air is misty

Nessie's lair may become visible

We'll move on to the other Loch

henetha Wed 22-Jul-20 10:38:23

We'll move on to the other Loch
Where there's nobody our view to block

But hang on, did I just see Nessie?

But hang on, did I just see Nessie?
Or it could have been my lively Auntie Bessie

Swimming for all she was worth

Puzzler61 Wed 22-Jul-20 16:51:59

Swimming for all she was worth
To the far shore heading north

I hope always to remember this very rare sighting

She moves as quick as lightening

I tell the newspapers and make a scoop

I tell the newspapers and make a scoop
Aunt Bessie swims in a loop

They offer five hundred

Pantglas2 Wed 22-Jul-20 20:13:58

They offer five hundred
Too little, I thundered!

It’s worth more as an exclusive

52bright Thu 23-Jul-20 01:59:44

It's worth more as an exclusive
scoops like this are very elusive

You need to pay more for front page news

henetha Thu 23-Jul-20 10:17:35

You need to pay more for front page news
Where it'll get hundreds of views

So pay up or I'll sell it to tv instead

Elderflower2 Thu 23-Jul-20 11:19:08

So pay up or I'll sell it to tv instead
It's not front page news, go ahead

Aunt Bessie meanwhile is fuming

Oh dear, it is all that matters

Keep a lid on it, Bessie cries

Puzzler61 Thu 23-Jul-20 16:17:30

Keep a lid on it, Bessie cries
She throws back her head and rolls her eyes

My Jack will kill me if he knows I’ve been messing

My Jack will kill me if he knows I've been messing
all made up and in my best togs dressing

She needs to find a good alibi

henetha Fri 24-Jul-20 10:38:38

She needs to find a good alibi
Like saying she was learning to fly

"I was up in the air at the time" , she cried

Pantglas2 Sat 25-Jul-20 10:58:43

“I was up in the air at the time” she cried
Easily checked and can’t be denied

Need to look for another suspect

They hitched a lift to a festival near Cardiff, Glamorgan
Where lots of people sang and someone played the organ.

They wore wellington boots because of the mud

Pantglas2 Sun 26-Jul-20 11:44:26

They wore Wellington boots because of the mud
Then needed waders as the rain turned to flood

So much discomfort and absolute misery
