Carrying on .........
This road sweeper gloomily pushed his barrow
Through the streets, wide or narrow
Keeping an eye out
For treasures ,no doubt ( to keep the shape Granny)
Which he'll grab with the speed of an arrow!

I have to confess to nightly watching MASH
I don't care if some folks call it trash
It's 'classic TV'

Today I am risking going out to lunch
Should I go by bus or taxi, there’s the crunch
Decisions R Us
I’ll plump for the bus
And join the rest of the masked bunch

Daisy the huge dog got stuck up a mountain
The problem was, how to get her down again
A crack mountain rescue team
Tempted her with ice-cream
So she laid on the stretcher and didn't complain.

Leaves are turning, or is that the drought?
The seasons seem to be all inside out
Time for cover at night
Plants in danger of blight
The weather's so contrary there's no doubt.

I'd love to go white water rafting
Although it means lots of hard grafting
In the water I'd fall
But I was born with a caul
But I’d really much rather be crafting.

I once had a hot air balloon flight
When the fire powered up I got a fright
In the basket I fell
I couldn't help but yell
And just couldn’t wait to alight

Sorry to be fussy but limericks have a definite shape ?
lines 1,2 and 5 -around 9– 12 syllables
lines 3 and 4 should have 5 – 7 syllables
So.....

I was knocked to the base of the basket

We've just had a day out in Didling
It didn't just rain, it was piddling
My brolly blew inside out
The kids pulled a pout
The trip wasn't even fair to middling.
