MY SISTER IS INTO PHOTOGRAPHY

 

My sister is into photography

It makes her shine and glow

And she talks enthusiastically

But you can’t shutter up though

THE YEAR OUT

 

I took a “year out” before going to Uni

And I got a job before you start to sneer

I got a job on the London Underground

And I call it my “Mind the Gap Year”

THE HUNDRED YEARS WAR

 

Called the Hundred Years War

I was understandably misled

Because the war really lasted

A hundred and sixteen instead

WHAT A COINCIDENCE

 

A farmer went straight to the bar

And ordered a glass of champagne

The woman sitting next to him said,

That she had already done the same

 

“What a coincidence” the farmer said

As they clinked glasses

 

He told her it was a very special day

And that he was celebrating

She said it was special for her too

And she was also celebrating

 

“What a coincidence” the farmer said

As they clinked glasses

 

He asked what she was celebrating

She said after many years of marriage

And trying for a family with her husband

She would soon need a baby carriage

 

“What a coincidence” the farmer said

As they clinked glasses

 

He told her he was a chicken farmer

And his hens had been infertile all year

But that day they were all laying again

And that was why he was in good cheer

 

She said that it was indeed great news

But asked what changes he had applied

In order for them to become fertile again

“I simply used a different cock” he replied


The woman smiled, clinked his glass

And said “what a coincidence”

GALLIC SANDALS

 

A Frenchman, wearing sandals,

Was in a bit of a gallic strop

After teasing about his footwear

His name was Phillipe Phillop

21st CENTURY NURSERY RHYMES # 434

 

There was an old woman of Leeds,

Who spent her time in widows’ weeds;

She mourned for her team

And premier league dream

This hopeful old woman of Leeds!

ARE YOU WEARING KNICKERBOCKERS?

 

Are you wearing Knickerbockers?

Well listen, I don’t mean to flummox

But it looks like the Knickerbockers

Have fallen out with your socks
