One of our regular limerick writers Papaoscar has suggested we use Animal, Vegetable and Mineral in our next set of limericks, based on the old radio show of the 1950s.

So are you about MiniMouse or another of our stalwarts to kick the show off?

The budgie just freaked.

MiniMouse Fri 23-Jan-15 22:02:50

The harvest mouse squeaked

And the parakeet keeps on and on talking

MiniMouse Fri 23-Jan-15 12:28:49

The parrot just won't stop its squawking

NotTooOld Fri 23-Jan-15 11:41:29

Now I'm walking the plank as I'm told.

MiniMouse Wed 21-Jan-15 19:03:25

The pets called a truce

NanKate Wed 21-Jan-15 17:34:51

Let's stop having this spat.

NotTooOld Wed 21-Jan-15 17:11:22

'Look here', said the dog to the cat

NotTooOld Wed 21-Jan-15 17:08:55

The outlook is really quite grim.

NanKate Wed 21-Jan-15 06:54:42
