Inebriate and idle

In pubs they are quite often seen

In life all Gransnetters are keen

Happy and high as a kite!

MiniMouse Wed 07-May-14 23:36:24

Hope it's not a mess

Nelliemoser Wed 07-May-14 23:13:41

Here's to our success,

MiniMouse Wed 07-May-14 22:32:08

Heaven knows I've been trying all night

Daisyanswerdo Wed 07-May-14 22:26:45

Here's hoping I'm getting this right

MiniMouse Wed 07-May-14 22:21:19

(I will get this right eventually!)

Getting ready very casually

MiniMouse Wed 07-May-14 22:20:12

And getting dressed very casually

Daisyanswerdo Wed 07-May-14 19:17:52

Gran's wide awake

Nelliemoser Wed 07-May-14 18:31:30

Give us a break,

AlieOxon Wed 07-May-14 18:29:05

Guaranteed to get there actually

papaoscar Wed 07-May-14 18:27:56

Gran's getting geared up gradually

AlieOxon Wed 07-May-14 17:42:03

(Let's keep trying !!)

(This is not quite the right rhythm here Folks)

Fearless Fanny flew the five flags?
Forgetting they were frayed old rags
Free the Faeroes she cried
Free fish for tea, all fried
Freedom food all cooked by hags.

papaoscar Wed 07-May-14 13:00:15

(PO you have missed out a line!!!)

papaoscar Wed 07-May-14 10:42:48

Fried fish for free, and five fags!

AlieOxon Wed 07-May-14 10:25:46

(Could be worse!)

Free the Faeroes she cried

MiniMouse Wed 07-May-14 09:50:25

( blush blush blush in readiness for getting it wrong again! )

Forgetting they were frayed old rags

AlieOxon Wed 07-May-14 09:22:11

Fearless Fanny flew the five flags?

(Five festival fireworks for Fearless Fanny, Nankate - but does she fit the tune? Her line goes - Thump di thump di thump di thump instead of Di boom di di boom di di boom di
Say it aloud or sing it to get the pattern)
