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 ?

Grumbled, he mumbled

So he went for a walk in the woods
Dreaming of gooey honey puds
His tummy rumbled
His thoughts were jumbled
When he heard lots of shuddering thuds

Pooh hid nervously under his bed

Pooh hid nervously under his bed
With a brown paper bag on his head
Inside which he found
A spanking new pound
And a hand written letter which said

Dear Pooh, I do hope you are well

If you need something, just ring the bell.
