That's the right attitude Maz, my powers are amazing. Care to reconsider the chocolate Mrs. Weasley? A bit for Sue R might crease the wheels as well!

 

But it doesn't say Jacquie on it.. It says Mrs Weasley!

(It doesn't really, but you can't know my real name :o )

Just a reminder that you still have a week to enter our December competition. So far we have 5 entries to vote for so still plenty of opportunity to win a wonderful mug or badge. Don't be bashful! :o

Away with the fairies

No brain in my head

I've done too much studying

I'm off up to bed!

I've missed the dear Forum

and my friends on here

Let's make up a Quorum

and go for a beer?

 

My husband is brilliant

Of that there's no doubt

He's been so supportive

And he doesn't shout

When there's no more undies

or shirts to wear out

Only hope it's all worth it

Ready for the next bout?

 

My daughter does the cooking

My son does some too

They're becoming quite good at it

Maybe a chef or two?

Me, I'll do anything

So I don't have to cook

Maybe I've gone too far this time

Studying sure makes me crook!

Gets my vote Deb! Keep on going - it will all be worth it in the end!

 

Here's a friend's contribution (which her dad still sings to her each year), with apologies to dog lovers everywhere:-

 

Away in a mangle

No door on the shed

The windows are broken

And the dog is dead!

 

She maintains her dad owns the copyright but I'm not at all sure - think it might also be features in a Gervais Phinn book. Anyone got any ideas where it might have come from?

Writing in rhyme

takes up lots of my time

I thought i would leave it

and not pen a line

but entries are few

and far in between

so thought I should help

and write on this theme

 

I already have a badge

and a FSF mug

thank you for both

i don't mean to sound smug

Please all have a go

and join in the fun

you too could be drinking

from an FSF mug

 

Christmas is close

and I know time is short

and while I have plenty

I know you have not

I wish you all well

at this chistmas time

enjoy all the fun

with lots of laughter and wine :o

Christmas really does seem to be coming towards us like a train, doesn't it! However, if you feel you need to relax and de-stress for a short time then have a go at writing a verse or two. Think of it as therapy! :o

Well heres my go.......You did say about anything ,

 

My son although 30, still lives at home

His father and I well, we don’t like to moan

Girlfriends he’s had many, but wont settle down

Hes frightened of churches and the bridal gown

 

My friends all have grandchildren and I have none

This great disappointment is due to my son

The word commitment he doesn’t understand

Any talk of grandchildren has been banned

 

We love him unconditionally and will till the end

Excepting one and all, each new lady friend

I will smile very nicely and offer cake and tea

While asking them the question Do they want a baby?

this came to me tonight as I printed off all 29 pages of SEF and 26 pages of guidance !!!!

and I have nt even started filling it in yet!!

 

Oh Ofsted oh Ofsted

Oh what have you done?

You brought in S.E.F

Oh what jolly fun!!!

You all seem to like it

But oh how we hate

All we seem to get from it

Is head and hand ache

 

We worry, we write it

But oh what a chew

And how would you like it?

If we gave it to you !!

So Ofsted please Ofsted

Just let us be free

To play with the children

Then happier we d be !!!

Oh why do i have to,

get out of my bed?

My little sweet children,

jump onto my head.

They say they are hungry,

but im not awake.

My little sweet children,

want cornflakes and cake.

I get up quite slowly,

I ask them to wait.

My little sweet children,

just hold out their plates.

I love all my children,

but not when they say.

"Feed me, im hungry,

get up, come and play."

Bless all my little children,

e-ven if it is,

five in the morning,

and i want to sleep!

Great entries so far,

it'll be hard to choose.

The lyrics are fun

and do really amuse. xD

 

This comp has gone national

not sure if you know

but it's on the 'Wright Stuff'

a day TV show.

 

They started on Monday

results are tomorrow

It's our competition,

who said they could borrow?

 

Away in a Manger

re-write your own styles

I bet ours are better

by feet and by miles

 

the winning entry on TV

by a group, will be sung

lets hope it doesn't

get to number 1

 

so who on the forum

wants to be in a choir?

and sing our winning entry

stood around the hearth fire.

 

I will watch Matthew Wright

and check there's no cheat

If I see blatant copyright

I'll have to delete. :(

 

(not that I would suggest any cheating on here but it's all that I could think of that rhymes and include a moderator 'power' :( )

 

Maz, I couldn't press the 'add reply' button without a sentence with 10+ words, sorry, maybe a new year resolution - or not :o )

Please don't ask me to sing the winning entry - everyone who knows me puts their hands over their ears at the sound of my voice. xD

Oh Beau: there was I relying on you to be the mainstay of the Forum Karaoke group! :o

It's winter at pre-school and we are outdoors.

The children are playing even though the rain pours.

The staff are all freezing, their lips turning blue

All wishing they were inside enjoying a brew.

 

"Come on!" says the leader "Lets all play a game.

We'll jump over puddles. Who cares about rain!"

Then one child falls over, gets soaked to the skin.

"I'll sort it!" grins the leader and rushes her in.

 

Now there are two adults left out in the rain.

The children don't bother- they play just the same.

The wind starts to howl, blowing leaves from the tree

And the children all chase them shrieking loudly with glee.

 

The adults join in and they soon feel quite hot,

No longer fed up and bemoaning their lot.

" Can we have some bubbles?" pipes up one bright voice.

"Of course" say the adults "We welcome your choice."

 

The machine that makes bubbles soon starts to perform

And bubbles galore soon drift o'er the lawn,

The rain - it is stopping and here comes the sun!

The children keep playing - we're ALL having FUN!

 

This was started a while ago but I ran out of inspiration early on. Now have more time at home as I have broken my left wrist - slipping on black ice last Tuesday. My daughter tells me it is common in ladies of a certain age. I was number 7 at A&E that morning. Still I managed to get to work this afternoon and apart from doing up zips and changing nappies I can manage quite well. We finish with a party on Friday and I can't miss that! korkycat
