HOT CROSS BUNS

 

I’ve always loved hot cross buns

But they give me heartburn

You can eat one and it’s gone

But like the Lord they return

SO WHICH CAME FIRST

 

So which came first

What do you reckon?

The chocolate egg

Or the chocolate chicken

21st CENTURY NURSERY RHYMES # 78

John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt,

That is my name now

That’s John spelt with an H

And Jacob with a C

And Jingleheimer spelt the right way!!

Oh what is the point just call me JJ 

RMS TITANIC

 


The finest ship of the White Star Line,

Titanic majestically sailed the brine

A floating palace of opulence

A thing of beauty and elegance

 

But beauty is but a fragile veneer

And conceals a truth more austere

Into the depths Europe’s poor, are thrust

Travelling in steerage like human ballast

 

The iceberg cut her stem to stern

But at first no one showed concern

Except the poor below the waterline

Where it quickly filled with Icy brine

 

“Only God himself could sink her”

It was claimed by an unknown author

The Titanic promoted by J. Bruce Ismay

Quickly sank to his utter dismay

ON THE TITANIC

 

The most popular drink on the Titanic

Was not served with a lemon slice

Nor with an olive or a soda splash

It was simply served with lots of ice


GIFTED AMATEURS

 

If someone says they’re an Amateur

There’s really no need to panic

Because Amateurs built the Ark

While Professionals built the Titanic

YOU’LL NEVER GUESS I BET

 

You’ll never guess I bet

What it is that you get

If you cross the Atlantic

With the RMS Titanic?

Do you give in? Can I say?

Ok then “About half way”
