(new start)

Old Somerset Cider from Taunton

(My limerick master said "always use what you know...")

Hid something my throat got caught in

I coughed and spat


;^)#

Hit it on the head with a bat

and stitched up the hole in my torn tongue

New Start:

While casting my vote for the Mayor

The candidate, Leo Sayer


;^)#

Did something really queer

Then drank a cold beer

Oh Lord, we ain't got a prayer

I drank up my cup of bovril

'cos boiled cow's parts,

Taste better than cow pats

I crept in the door,

Threw up on the floor
