Thought I'd start where we left off

Today I saw the first mince pies
Too soon for all they symbolise

Metrication does vex me so
Each metre and gram and kilo
But shillings and pence

Metrication does vex me so
Each metre and gram and kilo
But shillings and pence
Make excellent sense

To a new maths course we should go.

Sewing's always been my big thing

Sewing's always been my big thing
Needlework's not a skill I'd bring

Sewing's always been my big thing
Needlework's not a skill I'd bring
Crosstitch is boring

Sewing's always been my big thing
Needlework's not a skill I'd bring
Crosstitch is boring
But needs exploring

Sewing's always been my big thing
Needlework's not a skill I'd bring
Crosstitch is boring
But needs exploring
Of patchwork quilts, their praise I'll sing!!

The history classes were always a pain

The history classes were always a pain
Remembering dates such a strain

The history classes were always a pain
Remembering dates such a strain
All those kings and queens

Juliet27 Wed 07-Oct-20 17:26:21

The history classes were always a pain
Remembering dates such a strain
All those kings and queens
Just seemed old has-beens

crazyH Wed 07-Oct-20 17:28:45

The history classes were always a pain
Remembering dates such a strain
All those kings and queens
Their cruel 'misdemeans'

The history classes were always a pain
Remembering dates such a strain
All those kings and queens
Their cruel 'misdemeans'
Now find something to entertain

So now I think I'll dance the jig

Juliet27 Thu 08-Oct-20 04:59:57

So now I think I'll dance the jig
Who's watching, I don't care a fig

WOODMOUSE49 Thu 08-Oct-20 09:27:15

So now I think I'll dance the jig
Who's watching, I don't care a fig
Arms and legs gyrate

henetha Thu 08-Oct-20 10:19:57

So now I think I'll dance the jig
Who's watching, I don't care a fig
Arms and legs gyrate
But I think I look great

crazyH Thu 08-Oct-20 12:05:21

But it's very good fun trying
No housework done, I'm not lying

WOODMOUSE49 Thu 08-Oct-20 20:11:35

? crazyH. Perhaps a different limerick?

So now I think I'll dance the jig
Who's watching, I don't care a fig
Arms and legs gyrate
But I think I look great
Until I saw I'd lost my wig

Next time I go near the cake tin

crazyH Thu 08-Oct-20 20:45:14

Next time I go near the cake tin
I'll turn around, I just won't sin

FarNorth Thu 08-Oct-20 22:36:01

Next time I go near the cake tin
I'll turn around, I just won't sin
I'll do some press-ups

crazyH Thu 08-Oct-20 23:18:19

Next time I go near the cake tin
I'll turn around, I just won't sin
I'll do some press-ups
Before the pre-nups

Juliet27 Fri 09-Oct-20 08:22:53

Next time I go near the cake tin

I'll do some press-ups
Before the pre-nups
Hmm, has someone been on the gin?

A stenographer at the Court

A stenographer at the Court
At excuses tried not to snort

FarNorth Fri 09-Oct-20 16:03:37

A stenographer at the Court
At excuses tried not to snort
But wrote it all down

Suppressing a frown

Tickledpink Fri 09-Oct-20 18:21:52

Suppressing a frown
While their kids ran around

The waiters were dodging and ducking
