Washed down with cup of builder's tea
An IPad and Games - that'll do me

What's better than relaxing in the sun

Joining in with the radio is such a distraction
Keep fit on the Internet means I’m in action

To move all the pounds that I’ve added through Bake-Off

threexnanny Sun 30-May-21 19:45:38

I need someone to watch over me, like Frank Sinatra sang
Especially while driving as I have caused my car to prang

Joining in with the radio is such a distraction

henetha Sat 29-May-21 11:09:08

But me, I prefer comfort, I need to feel safe
'Cos I'm really at heart at timid little waif.

Perhaps I could borrow them, when I’m on a date
What do you reckon? How do I rate?

But me, I prefer comfort, I need to feel safe

Over there I would dress ‘haute couture’ and high heels.
I’d like one of those ?, are there any deals ?

I’d like a kilt myself, with a lovely furry sporran
But p’rhaps not in France, it would make me look foreign.

Their tartans, they say , are symbols of their clans,
Tartans are lovely and have masses of fans.

They’d dance over swords with their kilts all a- swinging
The women go weak, with their fingers a-tingling

Mollygo Thu 27-May-21 21:44:57

Sorry

3rd line Mollygo?

Mollygo Thu 27-May-21 20:32:42

I enjoy a drink, but haven’t much money
Let’s watch men in kilts for free, that would be funny.

threexnanny Thu 27-May-21 20:01:47

Or maybe in Porto I'll spend my vacation
But it's not the place to practice abstention

I enjoy a drink but haven't much money

Mollygo Tue 25-May-21 12:18:53

I’ll stay there a while for the sun, food and wine.
That vision you mention, is equally mine.

Or maybe in Porto I’ll spend my vacation

Bellanonna Tue 25-May-21 09:36:40

But just a few hours . . . et je serais en France
A visit to Paris, then down to Provence

I’ll stay there a while for the sun, food and wine

Mollygo Tue 25-May-21 08:43:07

They hang about on the deck, watching the sea
(And when I was younger, they’d likely watch me)

But just a few hours . . . et je serais en France

threexnanny Tue 25-May-21 07:54:18

I won't take a plane cos there's too many folks
The ferry is much better despite the strange blokes

They hang about on the deck watching the sea

crazyH Mon 24-May-21 23:43:29

And when I’m allowed, I’ll be off overseas
Where the air is warm, and rain doesn’t freeze

I won’t take a plane cos there’s too many folks

Mollygo Mon 24-May-21 22:09:58

So eat, drink and be merry while you can
A brilliant idea, that’s now my plan

And when I’m allowed, I’ll be off overseas

henetha Mon 24-May-21 10:41:07

But what’s the point of depriving one’s self
And sitting here alone like a sad little elf.

So eat, drink and be merry while you can

crazyH Sun 23-May-21 22:17:39

If I had my time again what changes I would make
I’ll exercise more and eat less cake

But what’s the point of depriving one’s self

BrightandBreezy Sun 23-May-21 21:30:46

A shoulder to lean on is priceless indeed
try telling the young, but will they heed?

If I had my time again what changes I would make

threexnanny Sun 23-May-21 17:53:27

Sometimes the best you can do is to listen
Even if they are sad and a tear might glisten

A shoulder to lean on is priceless indeed

Mollygo Sun 23-May-21 13:37:41

It’s not about looks, it’s about being nice
And those other virtues that don’t have a price.

Sometimes the best you can do is to listen

henetha Sun 23-May-21 11:50:06

the older I get, the more good character matters
My friends agree, when we have girly chatters.

It's not about looks, it's about being nice

BrightandBreezy Sun 23-May-21 00:34:58

Then maybe one day the right one you'll find
doesn't need to be good looking if he's humorous and kind

the older I get, the more good character matters
