last line was -

Would it be wise to try a Highland fling?

threexnanny Thu 26-Aug-21 17:01:55

Not just the big ones with powerful backers
How about one that cares for alpacas?

I like the ones that care for animals best

biglouis Thu 19-Aug-21 00:56:08

Charity begins at home, as they say
Its good for the small ones to have their day

Not just the big ones with powerful backers

crazyH Wed 18-Aug-21 19:44:04

And all my favourite charities cannot be over looked
After buying houses and holidays booked

Charity begins at home, as they say

threexnanny Wed 18-Aug-21 19:34:45

If I won the lottery what would I do?
Share some with friends and make them happy too?

And all my favourite charities cannot be over looked

biglouis Sat 14-Aug-21 02:30:27

But then I’m jealous, as you can tell
So I have to sit down and dream a spell

If I won the lottery what would I do?

crazyH Thu 12-Aug-21 17:21:17

The best things in life are completely free
Like fresh air and water, and breeze by the sea

But then I’m jealous, as you can tell

threexnanny Thu 12-Aug-21 16:24:15

Who spend all that money on things they don't need
I'd give them some tips but I doubt that they'd heed

The best things in life are completely free

biglouis Sat 07-Aug-21 09:20:18

Me? I’m happy with plain hand me downs
I really do smile at those spendthrift clowns

Who spend all that money on things they dont need

crazyH Fri 06-Aug-21 19:48:47

Some folks like gaudy with gold everywhere
And curtains made of silk and mohair

Me? I’m happy with plain hand me downs

biglouis Fri 06-Aug-21 12:15:04

The decor is bright and suits my taste
Its light and cheerful no extravagant waste

Some folks like gaudy with gold everywhere

threexnanny Thu 05-Aug-21 17:17:20

My home is my castle though humble and small
It is all mine with the help of a small windfall

The decor is bright and suits my taste

biglouis Wed 04-Aug-21 14:28:00

I like independence and freedom to roam
Not shut in a palace which cannot be home

My home is my castle though humble and small

Crocus5 Wed 04-Aug-21 13:51:23

Their life full of duty is not what I’d choose
Would certainly not like to be in their shoes

I like independence and freedom to roam

biglouis Fri 30-Jul-21 23:44:17

but I long for a garden like Buckingham Palace
I dont envy the royals or regard them with malice

Their life full of duty is not what I'd choose

therustyfairy Fri 30-Jul-21 14:45:11

But happy memories give me comfort and cheer
Helped along by a cheese sandwich and beer

but I long for a garden like Buckingham Palace

threexnanny Fri 30-Jul-21 14:35:34

Just the friends I invite and the ones that I love

Fewer now as so many are gone up above

But happy memories give me comfort and cheer

biglouis Thu 29-Jul-21 00:42:03

Oh what an ideal world that would be
Without random people to bother me

Just the friends I invite and the ones that I love

crazyH Wed 28-Jul-21 22:22:53

I’ll enjoy being outside and digging the soil
I’ll whistle as I work, and wait for kettle to boil

Oh what an ideal world that would be

Crocus5 Wed 28-Jul-21 19:05:07

I’ll sing as I dig and I won’t need my mask
I’ll have a packed lunch and tea in a flask

I’ll enjoy being outside and digging the soil

biglouis Tue 27-Jul-21 00:03:42

No worries about air miles, and the fresh air is good
Ill work in my garden and grow my own food

Ill sing as I dig and I wont need my mask

threexnanny Mon 26-Jul-21 16:24:53

Then no more supermarket trips for me
There will always be something tasty to cook for tea

No worries about air miles, and the fresh air is good

biglouis Fri 23-Jul-21 23:44:56

My tomatoes and lettuce are growing fast
So I will soon be self sufficient at last

Then no more supermarket trips for me

henetha Fri 23-Jul-21 11:20:45

Onions and carrots in nice neat rows
I'll water them regularly with my hose,

My tomatoes and lettuce are growing fast

biglouis Wed 21-Jul-21 12:45:08

The world will turn and the veg will grow
Ill soon have potatoes in the soil below

Onions and carrots in nice neat rows

henetha Wed 21-Jul-21 12:22:37

I'll plant some veg and go all organic
Sit back and relax, no need to panic.

The world will turn and the veg will grow
