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?

Don't apologise we all make mistakes and I know I don't get the proper rhythm of a Limerick right most of the time. Fancy a glass wine ?
