And were visited by flashers 

ARE YOU WEARING IT FOR THE CRAIC?

 

Are you wearing it for the craic?

Surely the convent will want it back

It’s your habit? Well, that’s a twister

Get away with you, you’re never a sister

Well, I say you’re too lovely to be a nun

But if I’m wrong, I’ll be getting none

PUT DOWN # 51

 

Put downs work the best

For deflecting unwanted attention

But try to be amusing

As this relieves the tension

If he starts spinning you a line

Say to him if boredom persists

"The fact that no one understands you

Doesn’t mean that you're an artist."

THE WORLD HAS BECOME A SMALLER PLACE

 

The world has become a smaller place

And it will never be a big world again

But wherever you go things are the same

I wish I could uninvent the Aeroplane

SENT TO THE HEADMASTERS OFFICE

 

When I used to be sent to the headmaster’s office

I knew that the punishment would never be as bad

As having the ignominy of going and explaining my

Behaviour to my disappointed mum and dad

THE INTERNET CAN BE A CURSE AND NOT A BLESSING

 

The internet can be a curse and not a blessing

For example, the gambling sites on the net

Where eager Gamblers don’t even need

To put on a shirt in order to lose it on a bet

Sea-nymph Eidothea,

Gifted with prophecy

Daughter of Proteus

The shape-shifting sea God

Where I can be alone

A place of peace and serenity

A truly tranquil zone

And I will sit and wonder why

You left me on my own

ARE YOU WEARING A FRINGE?

 

Are you wearing a fringe?

I’m sorry it made me cringe

But I have a bit of an aversion

To that Winkleman person

ON MY VERY FIRST DAY AT PRIMARY SCHOOL


On my very first day at primary school

I handed, as instructed, a letter to my teacher

It was addressed to “whom it may concern”

And it had been written by my mother

It read “The opinions expressed by this boy

Are not in any way those of his mother or father”

IF YOUR EMPLOYEE GOES ALL RAGING BULL

 

If your employee goes all raging bull

Instead of his normal little sparrow

Just say “Easy there Mr Testosterone

Or I’ll replace you with a marrow"

PUT DOWN # 50

 

Put downs work the best

For deflecting unwanted attention

But try to be amusing

As this relieves the tension

Just say when he quickly bores

“Do you have magical powers?

In this fantasy world of yours?"

THE LIMITATIONS OF MODERN MEDICINE

 

My friend said I should take my husband

To see a doctor but I don’t know

Modern medicine is excellent but they

Can’t cure “honesty impairment” though

WOMEN DON'T MAKE FOOLS OF MEN

Women don't make fools of men

So don’t believe all the hype

Most men don’t need any help

They are of the do-it-yourself type

GSOH

 

A man likes a woman with a sense of humour

But he doesn’t want to hear her jokes

To him a good sense of humour means

That she is required to laugh at the blokes

THE INTERNET IS A CURSE AND NOT A BLESSING

 

The internet is a curse and not a blessing

When you develop a habit, you can’t stop

And max out all of your credit cards

Without setting foot in a single shop

IS THE INTERNET A BLESSING OR A CURSE?

 

Is the internet a blessing or a curse?

As a medium for interaction, its fine

But paedophiles operate in comfort 

As they stalk their victims online

Elaine was trying to explain to her geeky boyfriend

How she had gotten pregnant, with no luck at all

From your hard drive you didn’t use a fire wall”

TWO PSYCHICS

 

Two psychics stopped and the first one said

As by chance they happened to meet

“You're feeling good today. How am I?”

As they met one another in the street

SHE WAS DEFINITELY ONE FOR A BARGAIN

 

She was definitely one for a bargain

Olympic standard if I had a hat I would doff

She liked a bargain so much she had her husband

Circumcised for the sake of ten percent off

YOU ARE NOT MY CUP OF TEA

 

You are not my cup of tea, though

You’re not beyond help to be sure

Told not to use tables anymore

So we should pity the teacher

Some people need to extract

Their finger out of their butt again

To get some much needed

Lustful hangs around at the docks

And Prof comes home with the pox

The doctor said

"I can find no reason

For the pain in your head

Now let me see the thing

That gets ladies in distress”

At which point the lady

Lifted up her dress

And started to remove

All her underwear

At first all he could do

Was stand and stare

But then caused the doctor

To loudly shout

“No don’t take them off

Just stick your tongue out"

JUST A TANTALISING HINT OF THE EXOTIC

 

Just a tantalising hint of the exotic

Beneath the hem of your skirt

I’m interested in whatever it is

It’s quite driving me berserk

 

Can you give me the slightest hint?

Or be upfront I really don’t mind

I won’t be embarrassed at all

I love underwear of any kind

 

The garment into which you slipped

If it’s an under slip, something of that kind

If you were to slip yourself out of it

If you felt so inclined, I wouldn’t mind

And fined the fat man of Bombay

ARE YOU WEARING A HALO?

Are you wearing a halo?

Well angel you look very sweet

And their morals take a back seat

So, are you as sweet as you look?

If not, then I’m in for a treat

No cooking oil or anything like that

Oil was for lubricating the garden gate

And you cooked everything in fat

WATER BOY

When my Granddad was a boy

Water came out of the tap

It was the wonder of the age

Fresh water from your tap

If a man had even suggested

They bottle it and sell it

Well, you’re a very hardy guy

And a braver man than I

I LIKED THE OLD BOND MOVIES

 

With reliable heroes

And camp villains

But I watched on recently

And I found it quite exhausting

Foot chases, car chases,

Running here, driving there

It left me quite out of breath

It didn’t leave room for a story

The old Bond films had a story

Punctuated with action

Now they had action

Punctuated by more action

Bond was one of a kind

But now I’m not sure

If I’m watching James Bond

Or Jason Bourne

DEAR MR CADBURY

 

Dear Mr Cadbury I would like to say in my view

But at least it would be something

To prevent rivers bursting their banks

While the environment agency

Just blindly keep on firing blanks 

SLAVERY WAS BORN OF EMPIRE

 

Slavery was born of Empire

But not a European one

Following in Greece’s footsteps

Peoples were enslaved

From around the globe

Where there were trade routes

There was slaving

Arabs traded slaves bought

From African tribesmen

Muslims enslaved slavs

Turks enslaved Ukrainians

Mongols reached into the heart of Europe

And took slaves by the thousand

That the British didn’t invent it

Lay there yawning

On a first date do not choose

A restaurant to meet her

Because it’s not conducive

With your being a messy eater

THAT DRESS IS QUITE REVEALING

 

That dress is quite revealing

Your breasts it’s barely concealing

I think perhaps your teasing

Offering them up for squeezing

Your bust does look rather ample

Go on let me have another sample

ALWAYS READ STUFF THAT

Always read stuff that

Will make you look good

If you are struck with death

Earlier than you should

Among your treasures

And some mutual pleasures

MY WIFE IS VERY HOUSE PROUD

 

My wife is very house proud

A domestic goddess n'est-ce elle pas

She makes a Dyson look obsolete

And her food wins a Michelin star

She washes and irons like a Trojan

And keeps the garden tidy and neat

But all this counts for nothing

As I love her because she’s so sweet

THEIR BODIES LAY ENTWINED

 

Their bodies lay entwined

As they had so many times before

It was in this final lingering embrace

That she slowly slipped away

LIVE A VERY GOOD LIFE

Get to enjoy it all over again

She has gone now

And has left a hole

Where my heart

Once resided

But her spirit

Is always with me

And hangs in the air

Like a breath of spring

NAZISM WAS LIKE A CANCER

 

Nazism was like a cancer

Spread across the continent

And when Hitler was defeated

It was not a cure, for the cancer

But merely in remission

ORIGINAL FAIRY TALES

 

Original Fairy Tales

Were not devised

To scare children

And inform them

That monsters existed

Children already knew

There were monsters

Could be beaten

Among your treasures

And some mutual pleasures

Passions bloom

Lingering on her cheek

Contentment’s smile

Playing about her lips

THE CURVACEOUS SHAPE

 

The curvaceous shape,

What I delight

To the letches eye

Falling beneath the leer

Of sexual appraisal

To be so pleasing

To the onlookers

When amidst those

Onlooker’s gazes

Spied the pervert’s eye

And you knew

The letches feasted

On the sexual sight

In their perping rite

Smuggled cocaine

In little plastic eggs

More accustomed

A Kindle Surprise

Of her naked flesh

And as I take in

The breath-taking vista

I sigh to myself, in

Contented admiration

21st CENTURY NURSERY RHYMES # 203

 

Rub-a-dub-dub,

Margarine in a tub,

Without any butter the table is bare

The crumpets, the muffins,

Bread from the loaf tins

They all need to be buttered thick

For the most satisfyingly simple fare

ARE YOU WEARING A WAISTCOAT?

 

Are you wearing a waistcoat?

Well, it certainly gets my vote

Though some might disapprove

And it falls on me to behove

To say without being uncaring

It’s the only thing you’re wearing


RED LEATHER

 

She wore red leather

From head to toe

Which subtly squeaked

As she went to and fro

 

It hugged her figure

And she smelt divine

That new car smell

Is a favourite of mine

 

That leather clad lass

In the red leather suit

Without doing anything

Could toot my flute

I WAS ONCE A MEDICAL STUDENT # 7

I was once a medical student

But I didn’t really concentrate

I was asked what “benign” meant

Alas it’s not after you be eight

MY SATNAV HAS AUDIBLE ALARMS

 

My Satnav has audible alarms

They make each journey fraught

So, I think I’ll trade it in

And buy the silent sort

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD

 

Happy birthday dad

See, we did remember

Because you are so dear

Just like every year

 

We will never forget

We just wish and wish

You were still here

Just like every year

 

So we wish you

A happy birthday

And wipe away a tear

Just like every year

 

Harold Curtis 19/6/1922 – 8/5/1978

LEADERS OF THE GREAT NATIONS

 

Leaders of the great nations

Who want respect from society

Should moderate their behaviours

And steer clear of notoriety


IF YOU SEE A MAN RUNNING FROM A LION

 

If you see a man running from a Lion

Run like hell, run as fast as you can

But you don’t need to out run the Lion

You just need to run faster than the man

IF YOU SEE A BOMB DISPOSAL MAN

 

If you see a bomb disposal man

Running away from the bomb

You should at least keep up with him

Or out run him with aplomb

TINY THING

 

Tiny thing

A new baby

Totally dependent

A new life

That new Parents

Have to keep alive

Like a Tamagotchi

But without a reset

Mary, Mary quite contrary

This is what I want to know

With an Adams apple

And the razors dapple

Are you really a girl, yes, or no?

ARE YOU WEARING PIG TAILS?

 

Are you wearing pig tails?

Well, that look never fails

To make you look, as a rule,

Like you’re still at school

RED BLOODED

 

I like to think

I’m a red-blooded man

I love the female form

I’m definitely a fan

 

But I’m old fashioned

Red blooded man or no

But there’s just a bit

Too much on show

I WAS ONCE A MEDICAL STUDENT # 6

I was once a medical student

But it was harder than I thought

I was asked about terminal illness

Which isn’t being ill at an airport

MY SATNAV IS WORSE THAN MY WIFE

 

My satnav is worse than my wife

Telling me how to drive

If the limit is thirty miles an hour

It nags me, I’m doing thirty five
