Good afternoon all...

Jill - thank you for account of your animals and smallholding. Sounds idyllic.

B*rnard - a high standard of post, rhyming too.

Lazy day today but must push vacuum around, dust in my nostrils causing achooooos...

May your day go good...Liz

I’ll talk about that rhyming slang
From London Town, ( by Bow),
For London guys and London girls
Talk funny don’t you know

Many many London girls
All want to do a bunk
And go to many bistro bars
Till awfully awfully drunk

But down in London Town you know
Drunk’s not a word of town
For lots of London folk would laugh
And simply put you down

Say London girls on boozy nights,
“Lubbly Jubbly” and “My Gawd”
And also “Brahms and Listz”, not pistz,
As rambling drunk as Lords

Say “Brahms and Listz” when you finish pistz
Following a night in a bar
And you think your brain is going to burst
Coz of that final jar

Brahms and Listz, I do insist
Is a way that all should talk
Following a boozy party girls
As you pull out that cork

And pour vino down your throat
Thinking “No tomorrow morn”
“Oh my gawd” you cry out loud
Next day: “Why was I born”.

Your brain is spinning, whirling round
All dizzy as a top
And now you say what you always say
“No drinking, I will stop”.



(Until th* n*xt tim*) !!!!!!!

Hi to you all

Chris, I am not far from that part you did visit

K*lly good to know it is sunny up north, it is down south too, but clouds loom ominously

That bit you did add was brill, our G*org*, and apt on this strand of this board

Oh B, your old dutch has found a star
For your stanza’s light up ours days
You charm us gals, from nigh and far
With all your witty, whimsical ways

Now what shall I drink do you think?
If I visit a bazaar for a blink
A plinkity plonk or a tiddlywink?
Two or four I could happily sink

If I get Brahms and Listz, what can I do
Driving my jam jar, that will not do
A Jo Baxi or a Rolls, they might do
I’d happily pick a Rolls, wouldn’t you?

Cash I shall want to pay for all this
An Ayrton will not go far I think
(It’s so costly if you go on the piss)
A pony I think buys a lot of drink

I think my loaf is about to malfunction
I must stop, I think, at this junction
(I must go my hubby wants food to munch on
And I must stop writing stanzas full of unction)


If you scratch your loaf and don’t know what I am saying, a translation is

Plinkity plonk – Vin blanc
Tiddlywink – a short drink
Bazaar – bar
Blink – drink
Jo Baxi – taxi
Jam jar - car
Ayrton - £10
Pony - £25
Loaf – H*ad

;-))))

Happy Monday to you all

I will not visit much for six days.

My allocation of hours for gratis for this month did stop; I am now on pay as you go

I will miss my daily chats with folk, but will try to pop in occasionally

My OH should try a contract that allows for 24 hour a day allocation, but I don’t think that will occur, it is not a priority with him

Good morning all...

Trying to whip up motivation to do vacuuming and dusting but as usual, not in mood.

How to stop my standards from slipping now not at work?

Sunny and warm in Lancs today. Liz

Folk on holiday, visiting family too
Or buffing and polishing, things to do

A hair cut today, to tidy my mop
And following that a look in a shop

Dog wants a walk, out in sun
Oh my oh my, my day is such fun

Trout to cook for us tonight
With a glass of vino, ah just right

Now I am off, with a book to look at
About days in the past, now fancy that.

Am back from Dublin, brought lots of black liquid stuff for you all:-) Sorry your allocation is so small D. tsk tsk. Had lots of walking to do following climbing from big bird as trains sulking so today I am lying down a lot. XXBC

Hooray, BC is back, from Dublin’s fair city, a city full of fair maids and muscular guys.

BC, I am partial to a drop of the black stuff and also that Whisky that starts with a J

A van did odd things in my road today; it was going backwards, without a man in it (or a woman). It did stop in a bush and luckily nobody was hurt, how I did laugh to watch him running along trying to stop it, and shouting at it

Hi Mo, as your child lands my son will mount a ‘big bird in sky’ to go to land of Pharaohs, It is 24 months ago him and his good lady did marry, so off to far off lands, to mark that occasion

Off to a bookshop I will go this morning, all old books, lots to look at.
How many will I buy, that is what I want to know?

Dee the Bibliomaniac Report 6 Sep 2007 08:35

Good morning all.

D - Good hunting at that bookshop. Which topics attract you? Fiction or non-fiction?

My books grow although I try to only buy as many as fit my accommodation. Borrow from library too.

Had a good night of going unconscious last night so am up.
