Start a new one for a bit of a laugh?

A lovely young Gransnetter said
I have to get out of my bed
I need a wee
A huge mug of tea

And hopefully I won't be misled.

There once was a forum called Gransnet,
Where sat at home in a hairnet,
Members gave posts a thought
And argued and fought ...

A gransnetter who was called Little Flo
Had skin that was all of a glow
Hips that were slim
Despite all the gin
Then she woke up don’t you know

Nice idea for a thread, but you just finished the last one yourself littleflo - I thought the idea (yours) was to leave the last line for someone else to finish confused

littleflo Tue 21-Aug-18 09:02:11

Oops just realised I finished mine, it’s still too early. Anyway Grannyknot

Bashing each other with pans, pet.

Nice to know at least two people are awake with a functioning brain.

This morning I thought today is quite boring
DH in bed puffing and snoring
So on to Gransnet, there’s and idea
A post wih rules both simple and clear

Hopefully here no one`s even point scoring!

Logged on to GN for some cheer
For good advice from the old dears
But all I could see
Was a thread about tea

minesaprosecco Tue 21-Aug-18 20:23:30

So I gave up and went for a beer.

Sorry, I can't make up a new limerick, my creative juices have all been squeezed with that one linesmile

Doodle Tue 21-Aug-18 21:00:56

prosecco just finished the limerick
Her response was suitably done quick
She provided the line
That finished the rhyme

Menopaws Tue 21-Aug-18 21:38:21

At least I know I'm not dead

POGS Tue 21-Aug-18 22:07:09

At least I know I'm not dead
I'm ready to go to bed
Hopefully I'll wake in the morning
Tomorrow won't be so boring

Doodle Tue 21-Aug-18 22:44:22

At least I know I'm not dead
I'm ready to go to bed
Hopefully I'll wake in the morning
Tomorrow won't be so boring
Or l'll spend the day snoring instead.

Doodle Tue 21-Aug-18 22:46:36

I'm not sure of the rules of this game
The rhymes are not all the same
Some four lines or more
Wish I could be sure........

There's a Limerick thread in the Games section.

There once was a Gran on a thread ...

I don't think this is working littleflo no one seems to be adding the last line just doing a complete one or posting one line. ?

Panache Wed 22-Aug-18 13:56:30

Please don`t give up just yet
These things take time you bet
But when it does take off
To you my hat I`ll doff

(I expect you to provide the punch line!)

Doodle Wed 22-Aug-18 14:46:00

Please don't give up just yet
These things take time you bet
But when it does take off
To you my hat I'll doff
The fifth line will make it a set!

littleflo Wed 22-Aug-18 16:00:13

Excellent Doodle.

The rules of this game I’ll reiterate
Though I was the first to deviate
Don’t be dozy like me
It’s four lines you see

Grannyknot Wed 22-Aug-18 16:00:29

There once was some Grans on the 'Net
Who couldn't work out what needed to be said
Doodle called for restraint
Saying Poet Laureate it ain't...

A question is asked,
Opinions are passed,
Sometimes , someone gets stroppy.
If you don’t want to know what anyone thinks,
