Turning to the hat-stand
He solemnly declares,
"Everything you've said is right -
Coats should be on chairs.
Only caps and kepis,
Little bonnets too,
Ought to have the right to hang
Naughtily from you".
Ending with this lecture to the soldiers gathered round:
"Look out for nude Turags - they're all mentally unsound"!
Nostalgia is not what it used to be. 😟

Not bard. Not bard at all, Peepsie.

When's the closing date for entries? I might just rattle one off myself if I've got a minute.
I apologise, in advance.

I'm not sure if you're on the list of winners, Tarks. Hopefully Roger will check.

End of the month, Tarks. I must say this is all warming up nicely.

To win a competition
However simple-minded
Each entrant must produce
New poems, well designeded.
Only works of genius,
Maniacal, inspired
Are fit to be considered
Drat! Something just backfired.

I must thank you for causing the racking of the brains

Do you have so many brains that you have to put them in racks?

Even as I wrote that, I wondered if I had picked the right word and considered looking it up in order that the resident persnickety, pass-remarker would have no opportunity to point out my error. Perhaps he won?t notice this little one mistake, on the bloody Christmas thread, I thought, perhaps he will let this one go?

Nope, the pesky, persnickety pass-remarker strikes again!


People will come from strange lands to hear me speak my words of wisdom. They will ask me the secret of life and I will tell them. Then maybe I'll finish off with a song. The Nomad

What did you bait it with, a worm or a fly?

Enter army medics with their
Stretcher at the ready.
"Colonel, you're to come with us
As you're quite unsteady".
Reaching for his Prit-Stick, our hero then reacts -
Glueing pics of Doris Day, sideways
On their hats.
Three cheers for the Colonel, (he's less sensible than bats!)

You remind me of that bloke in Blackadder.

Well, with you signing off as Baldrick,  that just leaves Blackadder.

I've got an absolutely filthy poem, based on a dirty joke someone told me. It's got nothing to do with Christmas or any Beau Peep character, will that do?
