(to TRIQUACK)

found her sun cream was just out of reach

so she asked a young lad

unaware of the internet rat boom
arranged for a meeting

took off all her clothes in a Disco


(They're Limericks, you won't keep em clean whilst I'm about)

A frisky young Guy and some frisk-oh


My Grandma, a Nudist it seems
