Declared “No more climbing the shelf”

When Santa Claus` favourite elf
Declared "No more climbing the shelf"
I`m on the table

When Santa Claus` favourite elf
Declared "No more climbing the shelf"
I`m on the table
'Cos I'm not able

When Santa Claus' favourite elf
Declared, "No more climbing the shelf"
I'm on the table
'Cos I'm not able
And with that, I bid you, "Good health!"

I bought a bottle of sherry

Hoping to make myself merry

I bought a bottle of sherry
Hoping to make myself merry

I bought a bottle of sherry
Hoping to make myself merry
I drank it like wine
'Hic,' head hurts like swine

I bought a bottle of sherry
Hoping to make myself merry
I drank it like wine
'Hic', head hurts like swine
Took painkillers brought by Terry.

I used to like a 'Cherry B'
Brandy and Babycham for me

Juliet27 Sun 02-Jan-22 08:04:23

I used to like a 'Cherry B'
Brandy and Babycham for me
Cinzano was ‘in’

I used to like a 'Cherry B'
Brandy and Babycham for me
Cinzano was ‘in’
Not artisan gin

I used to like a 'Cherry B'
Brandy and Babycham for me
Cinzano was ‘in’
Not artisan gin
But now I’d just rather have tea

A foolhardy stuntman from Goole

Jangran99 Sun 16-Jan-22 08:45:11

A foolhardy stuntman from Goole
Leapt from a height into a pool

Hellogirl1 Sun 16-Jan-22 22:56:26

A foolhardy stuntman from Goole
Leapt from a height into a pool
He judged it all wrong

Jangran99 Sun 16-Jan-22 23:15:19

A foolhardy stuntman from Goole
Leapt from a height into a pool
He judged it all wrong
And entered headlong

Hellogirl1 Mon 17-Jan-22 21:33:39

A foolhardy stuntman from Goole
Leapt from a height into a pool
He judged it all wrong
And entered headlong
Stood up and cried "I`m a fool!"

"I should have checked the water depth"

Jangran99 Sat 22-Jan-22 20:31:43

depth is a difficult one, suggest we try level

Should have checked the water level

Juliet27 Sun 30-Jan-22 02:42:19

Should have checked the water level
Before being a daredevil

Crocus5 Mon 31-Jan-22 10:01:29

Should have checked the water level
Before being a daredevil
He headed straight in

Hellogirl1 Mon 31-Jan-22 21:18:18

Should have checked the water level
Before being a dare devil
He headed straight in
Then made such a din

Juliet27 Tue 01-Feb-22 07:20:31

Should have checked the water level
Before being a dare devil
He headed straight in
Then made such a din
In such pastimes just don't revel

It's best to be safe not sorry

Crocus5 Tue 01-Feb-22 09:33:33

It’s best to be safe, not sorry
Don’t get knocked down by a lorry

Jangran99 Tue 01-Feb-22 10:13:12

It’s best to be safe, not sorry
Don’t get knocked down by a lorry
Try looking both ways

Juliet27 Tue 01-Feb-22 17:18:14

It’s best to be safe, not sorry
Don’t get knocked down by a lorry
Try looking both ways
Observancy pays

Tina49 Sat 05-Feb-22 02:42:19

Its best to be safe, not sorry
Don’t get knocked down by a lorry
Try looking both ways
Observancy pays
Sometimes life can be such a worry

I once had a dream about fairies
