Remember any old silly verses etc you were told as a child

[beaubon]

not a verse as such - but when we hurt ourselves - Dad used to say

T'hy feel better lass when we rub thee down with potted meat

 

He never did but it always worked - I still say it today

[Joto]

That's funny beaubon, because when my mother-in-law was alive, she would say you need rubbing down with a brillo pad. For the life of me I can't remember in what context she used it though

[beaubon]

Just thought of this one, it was another one of my Dad's

 

Man who cooks carrots and 'peas' in same pot very unhygenic:

You must be a good friend as well as her carer

she gave me this one:-

once upon a time,

the bird **** the line,

the monkeys chewed tobacco,

and the little piggys run,

with their fingers up their bum,

to see what was the matter.

christmas is coming

the goose is getting fat

please put a penny

in the old mans hat

if you havent got a penny

a ha,penny will do

if you havent got a ha,penny

god bless you

[Joto]

Thank you to todays posters

puff the magic dragon

looking for a mate

when he couldn,t find one

he thought it was his fate

when at last he found one

a cracking piece of stuff

he didn,t know just what to do

thats why they called him puff

she gave me this one:-

I quoted that rhyme back in post #3

[okismoki]

have you ever been to france,

to see the ladies dance,

they kick their legs so high,

you can see their chocolate eye.

I quoted that rhyme back in post #3
