She stroled the briny strand........ (SP?????)

henetha Fri 25-Apr-14 10:05:44

A wave overwhelmed her....

Elegran Fri 25-Apr-14 10:26:42

She fell helter-skelter (well its the best rhyme I can come up with)

MiniMouse Fri 25-Apr-14 10:46:55

And on her poor head she did land.

A large Cornish pasty was boasting

AlieOxon Fri 25-Apr-14 13:12:44

That when under grill he was roasting

MiniMouse Fri 25-Apr-14 13:20:03

He puffed up and browned

Elegran Fri 25-Apr-14 14:33:30

And got all fat and round

AlieOxon Fri 25-Apr-14 16:54:52

He really enjoyed his fast toasting!

A lonely old granny was watching

papaoscar Sat 26-Apr-14 06:40:15

A little bird busily nesting

NanKate Sat 26-Apr-14 06:59:55

This perked up her feelings.

As she sipped her darjeeling

papaoscar Sat 26-Apr-14 10:15:00

Then went out to join in some dancing!

judidoo Sat 26-Apr-14 10:57:10

A very old biker roared by

judidoo Sat 26-Apr-14 11:02:51

I like the way my lonely old granny has been cheered up. Iwonder what will happen to the very old biker -I do have a particular person in mind.

Should have written this first (for continuity). Sorry!

Anyway,

A very old biker roared by

Oldgreymare Sat 26-Apr-14 11:39:43

Slapping his leather-clad thigh,

AlieOxon Sat 26-Apr-14 12:30:22

He zoomed up the hill

papaoscar Sat 26-Apr-14 12:43:20

In search of a thrill

Elegran Sat 26-Apr-14 12:51:03

Till his scooter turned over - poor guy.

AlieOxon Sat 26-Apr-14 14:33:47

But he picked himself up and got on

Elegran Sat 26-Apr-14 14:35:48

Revved through the gears and was gone

AlieOxon Sat 26-Apr-14 15:02:45

Right out of sight

AlieOxon Sat 26-Apr-14 15:03:54

In the dim evening light

(sorry couldn't resist)

Crouching low in the saddle
