Only then will I head off home
And sort out my wet hair with a comb
I'll try a new style
With which I'll beguile
Everyone wherever I roam

I'll charm everybody I meet

hollysteers Wed 21-Jan-26 16:11:03

Maybe I’ll be famous one day
My name in lights in Colwyn Bay
A star on the stage
Whatever my age

Maybe I’ll be famous one day
My name in lights in Colwyn Bay
A star on the stage
Whatever my age
Eventually, I’ll get my way

Hurrah, I’m the lead in Evita

Hurrah, I’m the lead in Evita
And I will dress like a Lolita

Mollygo Thu 22-Jan-26 14:36:19

Hurrah, I’m the lead in Evita
And I will dress like a Lolita
Woth dans at my feet

hollysteers Thu 22-Jan-26 14:55:15

Hurrah I’m the lead in Evita
And I will dress like a Lolita
With dans (?) at my feet
I’ll generate heat

crazyH Thu 22-Jan-26 16:21:48

Hurrah I’m the lead in Evita
And I will dress like a Lolita
With dans (?) at my feet
I’ll generate heat
Just like a spicy Fajita

I once blind-dated a Mexican

(Woth dans should have read “with fans”)

I once blind-dated a Mexican
He turned out to be a delightful man

crazyH Thu 22-Jan-26 18:48:51

I once blind-dated a Mexican
Turned out to be a delightful man
Manners impeccable

Belardo Thu 22-Jan-26 18:54:51

I once blind-dated a Mexican
Turned out to be a delightful man
Manners impeccable
And looks, quite delectable

I once blind-dated a Mexican
Turned out to be a delightful man
Manners impeccable
And looks, quite delectable
He was a mad keen football fan.

We went to a match last Tuesday

We went to a match last Tuesday
It ended up being a blues day!

MollyNew Thu 22-Jan-26 19:58:13

We went to a match last Tuesday
It ended up being a blues day!
We just couldn't score

hollysteers Thu 22-Jan-26 21:09:42

We went to a match last Tuesday
It ended up being a blues day!
We just couldn’t score
As we did of yore

GoldenLady Thu 22-Jan-26 21:31:18

They're predicting a monster snow storm

Sorry, my last line for the previous limerick didn't go through.

We went to a match last Tuesday
It ended up being a blues day!
We just couldn’t score
As we did of yore
It turned out a "lots of boos" day.

They're predicting a monster snowstorm
It means staying in - makes my yawn

MollyNew Fri 23-Jan-26 12:47:13

They're predicting a monster snow storm
It means staying in - makes me yawn
I'm feeling quite trapped

hollysteers Fri 23-Jan-26 15:03:33

They’re predicting a monster snow storm
It means staying in -makes me yawn
I’m feeling quite trapped
My energy sapped

GoldenLady Fri 23-Jan-26 15:21:51

They’re predicting a monster snow storm
It means staying in -makes me yawn
I’m feeling quite trapped
My energy sapped
But at least I am cozy and warm

Soon there will be snow and ice

pably15 Fri 23-Jan-26 15:59:51

Soon there will be snow and ice
Slipping on ice is not nice

Belardo Fri 23-Jan-26 16:07:23

Soon there will be snow and ice
Slipping on ice is not nice
I could fall on my tush

52bright Fri 23-Jan-26 17:11:54

Soon there will be snow and ice
Slipping on ice is not nice
I could fall on my tush
I would scream - not hush

hollysteers Fri 23-Jan-26 22:29:38

Soon there will be snow and ice
Slipping on ice is not nice
I could fall on my tush
I would scream -not hush
My aunt has slipped on ice twice.

An Eskimo I’d never be

An Eskimo I’d never be
For Greenland would never suit me

52bright Sat 24-Jan-26 13:23:12

An Eskimo I'd never be
For Greenland would never suit me
I do love the sun
