last line was -

Would it be wise to try a Highland fling?

No polluting petrol with my horse
and the manure is good for my rhubarb of course

I'll plant some veg and go all organic

biglouis Tue 20-Jul-21 12:18:36

The peace and quiet is perfect heaven.
The winding lanes of Cornwall and Devon

No polluting petrol with my horse

henetha Tue 20-Jul-21 11:00:51

To trot along the country lanes
Forget about cars and aeroplanes.

The peace and quiet is perfect heaven.

biglouis Tue 20-Jul-21 00:26:35

I’ve bought myself a horse and carriage
A smart little beauty I wont disparage

To trot along the country lanes

crazyH Mon 19-Jul-21 15:45:21

Ive plenty of friends Ive made down the years
Some brought me joy and others, tears.

I’ve bought myself a horse and carriage

biglouis Mon 19-Jul-21 15:40:42

So forget about men and live life to the full
Not having a man does not mean being dull

Ive plenty of friends Ive made down the years

henetha Mon 19-Jul-21 11:17:53

Feeling sorry for myself simply will not do
Very wise words and all of them true.

So forget about men and live life to the full

biglouis Mon 19-Jul-21 01:03:09

Who’ll have me now, with my hacking cough?
I think this is karma now having a laugh

Feeling sorry for myself simply will not do

crazyH Sun 18-Jul-21 16:24:55

So here am I, to nurse my regrets
With a bottle of wine and some cigarettes

Who’ll have me now, with my hacking cough?

biglouis Sun 18-Jul-21 16:17:15

Some singing siren lured him right away.
Many a good man has been led astray

So here am I, to nurse my my regrets

MrsTagain Sun 18-Jul-21 13:38:37

That ship sailed a very long time ago
With my ex-husband on it, I'll have you know!

Some singing siren lured him right away.

Crocus5 Sun 18-Jul-21 13:16:40

And the lifeboat men might be busy elsewhere
Looking for others, they really do care

That ship sailed a very long time ago

henetha Sun 18-Jul-21 13:09:58

Or let the tide carry you far out to sea
Be careful, you may not get home in time for tea.

And the lifeboat men might be busy elsewhere

biglouis Sat 17-Jul-21 10:22:33

Or maybe go surfing in Cornwall one day
As the waves from the ocean crash into the bay

Or let the tide carry you far out to sea

henetha Sat 17-Jul-21 09:30:13

What could I do with two dicky knees?
You could sit on the sofa and eat lots of cheese.

Or maybe go surfing in Cornwall one day

crazyH Fri 16-Jul-21 19:40:03

But that would be good for my arthritic knee
Don’t think so, i’ll probably fracture it, wait and see

What could I do with two dicky knees?

threexnanny Fri 16-Jul-21 18:15:52

Or I could win the lottery, millions of pounds
Then I'd leap up and down in a series of bounds

But that would be good for my arthritic knee

biglouis Wed 14-Jul-21 11:10:51

Any day now something great might occur
I may meet another for whom I can care

Or I could win the lottery, millions of pounds

henetha Wed 14-Jul-21 10:40:45

Life is too short to dwell on the sorrows
You are right, it's all about our tomorrows.

Any day now something great might occur

threexnanny Tue 13-Jul-21 17:26:05

Sharp words may come quickly but often regretted
To those who stand by me I'll be forever indebted

Life is too short to dwell on the sorrows

biglouis Tue 13-Jul-21 01:00:56

With the love of my life, oh how my heart breaks
When I think back on my foolish mistakes

Sharp words may come quickly but often regretted

henetha Mon 12-Jul-21 12:53:24

Though each in its way was short yet sweet
I've yet to meet anyone that can ever compete

With the love of my life, oh how my heart breaks

biglouis Mon 12-Jul-21 11:56:28

when we said goodbye I was free to roam
The affaires of my life would fill a big tome

Though each in its way was short yet sweet

BrightandBreezy Mon 12-Jul-21 00:32:13

My love was not free so I called them 'friend'
but romances like that don't last in the end

when we said goodbye I was free to roam

biglouis Sun 11-Jul-21 15:13:31

The best one of all was my secret love
But I shall of needs remain silent thereof

My love was not free so I called them "friend"
