......... but these are my own :please: be kind :roflmao:

I'm sitting here watching tv
with a warm rug over my knee
The programmes are cr*p
and the cat wants my lap
But he's useless at fun repartee

If I pick up my knitting, he's there
Claws all ready and fixing a stare
With one pounce he attacks
the leg I've just waxed
making me leap from my chair

.....................................................................

A soak in the bath is a pleasure
Rare moments alone which I treasure
but here is the thing
why does the phone ring
and add to the day-to-day pressure ?

....................................................................

Money's the root of all evil
and they say that it's really the devil
but I know for certain
that without it, it's curtain(s)
and toasties for ever by Breville

When I were a lass long ago
I was never short of a beau
but none of them stuck
'cos they ran out of luck
when they asked "Can you give me a tow?"

The FTSE (Footsie) goes up and goes down
when it's down I do nothing but frown
but when it goes up
I fill up my cup
then go out for a night on the town

.............................................................

Tomorrow I've promised to do
Some chores for an hour or two
I hate all that mess
but have to confess
I'll need Harpic to clean out the loo !

...............................................................

I dream of a long Saga Cruise
with Zoners, so many I'd choose
we would soak up the sun
have a great deal of fun
but go easy on cakes and the booze

I really do like Yorkshire Puddin'
and think that it looks very good in
between carrots and peas
with gravy ? Yes please
can I follow with tonic and gin in?

.............................................................

Oh b****r I've lost my car keys
and I've a date at 3, if you please
I hate being tardy
and I can't find my cardi
plus now I have started to sneeze

.............................................................

A squirrel paid us a visit today
ate some nuts and then scurried away
he's so comical to watch
all our ploys he can scotch
Is he red? Oh no he's a grey.........

............................................................

There are no plans around here
to line the streets and cheer
they're a miserable lot
who don't give a jot
to me at least that's quite clear !

.............................................................

A schmooze I could do with right now
there's a furrow in my grumpy brow
I had a big plan
now it's gone down the pan
with a thumping great 'splosh' and a wow !

..............................................................

I'm watching Her Maj and the boats
as o'er the water she floats
The weather's not bad
she doesn't look sad
and I'm glad that she put on her coat

...............................................................

The great day has come to an end
my good wishes to Lizzie I send
she's done a good job
(for more than a bob)
Do you think that she'd be my friend ?

It's grim up t'North, dontcha know
and I'd not be surprised to see snow
the rain is unending
the guttering's bending
and the water butt's on overflow !

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Daytime tv is the pits
I oft' reach the end of my wits
by the dross
I'm so cross
I could almost pick nits !

----------------------------------------------------------------------

The M62 is a nightmare
I thought we never would get there
Nose-to-tail all the way
Not much more I can say
'cept I'm back home now and in my armchair

There once was a man from Dundee
Who had a big bump on his knee
His doc said "don't worry
There's really no hurry
There's an op for when you have three!"

----------------------------------------------------

I've bought a halogen oven
and I'm going to treat it with love 'n
respect doncha know
it's not just for show
it will even cook eggs & bacon !

-----------------------------------------------------

Lancashire lads are the best
For me, you can keep all the rest
My fella is sweet
his hair always neat
and he'd win any sweetheart contest

------------------------------------------------------

A new car will be mine come October
and I'll be able to travel all over
this fair land
won't it be grand ?
just so long as the driver stays sober !

--------------------------------------------------------

I wish I could press the 'off' switch
When it gets to half past ten
but my eye starts to twitch
and my fingers to itch
and then
I encounter a 'glitch' !

My screen it has froze
choice words (!) will be said
for I cannot repose
until I've read the prose
in a thread that just grows and grows !

-----------------------------------------------------

My mother, my father, and me
are invited to Aunty's for tea
I have to say
I won't go today
'cos I prefer to chat on my pc !

Eeeh I'm right fond of your verse
Its a talent you love, or you curse
Ah know when I'm writing
Me thoughts are kicking and fighting
I've no idea which is worse.

Ideas run around in me 'ead
When I'm awake or lying in bed
I've just got to get up
Pour some tea in a cup
And butter a slice o' brown bread

I glance over to my pal.... the PC
Ah left it on and its winking at me
Saying,'Ah think its time,
For an inspired rhyme
To post on that great Rowan Tree.
My inferiority complex is not as good as yours.
