I had an old girlfriend called Hale

I thought this was going to be a limerick.

Ha ha - that made me laugh! Maybe I should write one. Ex Hale would obviously be the "punchline".

I had an old girlfriend called Hale
Who kept a large male humpback whale
Her favourite trick
was to lather it's -


Hang on, there's someone at the door.

Reporting back on names...

My neice has a facebook friend called Misty Meints - sounds like a Scottish/German sweety company.

[Diamond Lil]

When I was a student in a land long, long ago  I knew a girl from Ghana called Mary Oshitalu...appropriate I should remember her today on my birthday when that time is as clear as a bell and yesterday's choice for lunch isn't.

When I was a student in a land long ago
I knew a girl from Ghana called Mary Oshitalo
I remembered her today
on my birthday
When that time is as clear as a bello.

[Diamond Lil]

very good, Mince,except it was pronounced oshitaloo

[Malc]

You left that bit out, Diamond Lil.

I deliberately left that errant apostrophe there for Mince to see, and comment, but my little trick was that without a definite noun there's no definite proof the apostrophe is errant, but he didn't bite. The man is good. Or not very interested.

[Diamond Lil]

Nice try, Malc. Hard to believe that he's not interested in an errant apostrophe, though

Psst! Full stop missing.

[Malc]

Aha! You spelled "pissed" wrongly.

I used to be in love with Nyree Dawn Porter! She was in a brilliant series called "The Liars" in the sixties.
I...um...still don't understand "Nyree Dawn Porter Purse".

Don't know if you're still interested, Rog, but it seems to me that it is meant to be a pun - Nyree Dawn bought a Purse.
I know a young lad Davidson whose parents christened him Marley.

[Roger Kettle]

As Oscar would say, he was born to be Wilde.
