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.

So carrying on ....

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

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

I'll set out the giant Jenga game, it's always fun
With total isolation I am absolutely done

It's time to branch out with some appropriate care

Puzzler61 Thu 30-Jul-20 20:22:27

Should we wear masks? That’s the question
We’ll be munching on food, don’t want indigestion.

I'll invite the family round for some socially distanced fun
We'll have sausages on sticks and a lovely cream bun

Should we wear masks,? That is the question

Let's get out the trusty old barbecue
a little bit of socializing is more than overdue

I'll invite the family round for some socially distanced fun

I’ll be happy to take my modern campervan
With it's luxury 3' divan

Let's get out the trusty old barbecue

I’m waiting until it’s a lot less perilous
Though you won’t find me complain in a voice that’s querulous,

I’ll be happy to take my modern campervan

Pantglas2 Wed 29-Jul-20 10:37:13

I’ve nothing to report no exciting news
No far flung travel on a luxury cruise

I’m waiting until it’s a lot less perilous

henetha Wed 29-Jul-20 10:18:44

Time was when I had more exciting things to say
But now my words just seem to dwindle away

I've nothing to report, no exciting news

52bright Wed 29-Jul-20 00:06:05

I talk about the quality of the cashmere yarn
So little entertainment now I just drone on and on

Time was when I had more exciting things to say

Puzzler61 Tue 28-Jul-20 22:56:21

On Zoom I can show my new outfit
It’s a cashmere twinset, so I can just sit

I talk about the quality of the cashmere yarn

Elderflower2 Tue 28-Jul-20 18:23:28

No satisfaction to shop online
For what was, I do now pine

On Zoom I can show my new outfit

JessK Tue 28-Jul-20 11:33:07

There is no more pleasure in retail therapy
I just sit an wait for my next delivery

No satisfaction to shop on line

Pantglas2 Tue 28-Jul-20 10:09:31

Especially now that I have to wear a mask ?
It really is too much of an ask

There is no more pleasure in retail therapy

libra10 Tue 28-Jul-20 10:08:18

I love you lots but I’ve got a new man
He wears a smart suit, with a jazzy caftan

He whistles all day

henetha Tue 28-Jul-20 10:02:42

Um... back to 52bright I think....sorry lindylou23.

I need to venture forth and do a shopping trip
Not that I'm keen, shopping gives me the pip

Especially now that I have to wear a mask

Lindylou23 Tue 28-Jul-20 00:00:32

Another job on my list of chores
All given to me by her indoors

Here she comes with my glass of beer

52bright Mon 27-Jul-20 23:47:27

I'll get out the sewing machine and see what I can make
That'll be as successful as when I try to bake!

I need to venture forth and do a shopping trip

threexnanny Mon 27-Jul-20 22:37:19

"What a waste" she did cry
Now what can I wear - what can I try?

I'll get out the sewing machine and see what I can make

Elderflower2 Mon 27-Jul-20 13:40:13

After an eco-wash and 1000 revs spin
She had to throw all her clothes in the bin

"What a waste" she did cry

Puzzler61 Mon 27-Jul-20 13:29:40

Didn’t do much to dispel the odour
Her clothes had to go straight to wash in her top-loader

After an eco-wash and 1000 revs spin

crazyH Mon 27-Jul-20 11:59:29

She needed a shower as the smell was so bad
She used coal tar soap, that's all she had.

Didn't do much to dispel the odour

henetha Mon 27-Jul-20 11:00:42

No third line.....
Shall I do one?

She needed a shower as the smell was so bad

Elderflower2 Sun 26-Jul-20 21:04:15

It didn't do much for her dignity to fall full length in the mud
She emerged flat-faced as the mud was a cud

52bright Sun 26-Jul-20 19:15:23

Flora's friend Val fell down on the way to the loo
She jumped back up quickly just like a kangaroo

It didn't do much for her dignity to fall full length in the mud

Puzzler61 Sun 26-Jul-20 12:20:33

So much discomfort and absolute misery,
Even with waders the ground proved too slippery

Flora’s friend Val fell down on the way to the loo,
