:-6 What a great informative welcome, G#Gill... thanks for that !
I have a sense of humour.. so that's a bonus, and I will certainly take a look at the threads you mentioned... you all seem like a friendly lot - from what I've seen so far.
I suppose it's difficult when you've built up friendships and then newbies come along to tip the balance... but I promise that I'm just looking for a bit of a laugh and somewhere to hang my poetry from time to time.....
eermm....great poem BTW.... :-3
here's one for you -
Chips and Plaice
We were waitin in the chippy,
me and our lad,
We'd been for a few beers
and I was feelin kinda bad.
I ordered chips and scraps
with loadsa salt and sauce,
but our lad wanted the works..
said he could eat a bleedin' horse.
So we're waitin in the queue,
the girl in front was sloshed,
and the fella sprawling over her
smelt like he needed a good wash.
She had a filthy mouth,
I could tell by all her swearing
and she was flashing all her bits
in that skirt she was almost wearing.
Our lad... he kept on gawping
so I gave him a sharp nudge.
I'm not the jealous type you know,
not one to hold a grudge.
But he didn't get the message
so I punched him in the face...
and while he slept off his 'hangover'
I scoffed his chips and plaice.
