Some of the limericks on the Gransnet threads are really good and worthy of publication I think .
Some don’t keep to the rules. I know games are for enjoyment and it’s all about the taking part but I wondered if anyone else would feel like me ? Could we have a thread of limericks which stick to the 88558 syllable rules ?
I hope it’s not out of order to suggest this. What do gamesters think? AIBU ?

It's time to whip up a nice cake
I love nothing more than to bake
With butter and eggs

That fishing programme is back on
Standing around with a mac on
But they make it fun
And when they have done
Switch off the TV and crack on.

I'm feeling autumn in the air
Back to the long sleeves, please don't glare
The heating’s back on
Summer's almost gone
Not long before the trees are bare

So good for digestion, I say
A sip of best whisky each day
No acid reflux
If it's a deluxe
For which you’re quite happy to pay

But overeating has its fault
It's worse, if you add lots of salt
Sugar’s a no-no
As is cookie dough
But no harm in a tipple of malt.

This gran used to gamble each day
She played poker with all her pay
Seldom a winner
No cash for dinner
Without food she’ll just fade away

There was a young man from Rutland
With longings to travel to Jutland
Over the North Sea
In a small dinghy

With longings to travel to Jutland
Over the North Sea
He travelled with glee
Then landed his boat on the sand.
