I thought, for a little fun, I might post a few limericks about our members.

There was a young lady called Theia

Who suddenly came over all queer

She picked up her knitting

From where she was sitting

And produced a new cardy I fear

Though Betty and Theia were friends

From Monday through to Wedns

Day came when they fell out

And they felt the need to shout

Like a couple of cackling hens

First he was AL

And then he was Snow

Who is he now?

I don't really know.

Met him in London

A few years ago

Love him to bits

That "AL aka Snow"

With 3g and a Wi-fi hotspot

Came a Knight who would help them a lot

He got them on Skype

And tears they would wipe

What they got was a lot of Hot Spot

Odds on for a ban was a filly

Oscar had been rather silly

She chomped on the bit

And out came the sh!t

She should have posted Caerphilly

In the wings was a lady called Snooze

Who's brain was addled by booze

She'd had quite a few

Of a peculiar brew

And the hues of her trews would amuse

This reminds me of that time

When we put many things to rhyme.

Our fingers worn red led to bed the thread.

Now rested, can we string some new line?

A good story to show bad,

Come out and play, AnneBoleyn

The water's warm and fine

Don't lose your head to politics

Try your own hand at turning rhyme

When refering to one of the guys

This fellow is terribly wise

Crack-ing away with the wit

And very comfortable with it

He's a mixtute of YY's and GI's

But Snooze you cannot accuse,

Blow a fuse or indeed get the blues

Please give me a hug

For being a mug

I'm simply trying to amuse

He'll hold you Accountable, he will

You just can't be run of the mill

Constitutionally, right on the Bill

And I'm a horse...

Snooze was a girl who had real class

Far too refined for forum farce

From behind the keyboard she's read and snort

Woe betide those she'd report

Snowfire the wit did make the mistake

Of thinking dear Snooze was a bit of a flake,

While he dallied with words and rhyme

His ditty to Snooze constituted a crime

Apparently Snooze it's about whether you roll your arse or not

Actually, in Theia and Betty's neck of the woods, there is a leaning toward the "Rs" so Theia might me pronounced Thee-er

It's theiahhhhhhhhhhhh, thank you! I have never leant towards an R in my life. I once invaded the personal space of a Q but I had my reasons for this.

Oh Snowfire, he wanted a wispy waist

but fish and chips he just had to taste

Pie and mash with mushy peas

This was the stuff he wanted for teas

Ketchup, brown sauce and vinegar too

Battered sausage and pasties to name but a few

Pizza, burgers and a kebab thrown In

poor old Snowfire would never be thin.

While Snowfire was nibbling on lettuce and greens

Oscar was struggling to put on her jeans

It took 30 minutes to do up her zipper

She fought for an hour to just to look like a kipper

Grunting and groaning as if she's in pain

She fell on the floor as if she'd been slain

The seams they did rip and out popped her arse

Getting dressed for Oscar is a terrible farce

Theres a time in our lives when we need to face facts

And for Oscar the lesson is she cannot wear slacks

A comedy tonight!

Something exciting-

Spot is not biting,

Snooze is enticing,

A comedy tonight!

Something appealing,

GM is reeling,

Ahso is keening,

A comedy tonight!

Sound out your fate,

No one takes the bait,

Forum affairs

They’ll just have to wait……..

*Well, really it is the dishes…..*

*Snowfire, I didn’t mean pick them up and throw them!*

*tuning up violin for last chorus*

Something that’s rowdy,

Last on is tardy,

At the last keystroke

A comedy tonight!

An embroidered piece, made with fleece

With a gilded frame, I'll include your name

It will hang near the throne

With other treasures I own.
