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 cabbage is green
Which is stuffed in the bream
And the cake is covered in frosting

(I got the feeling that no one wanted to finish this particular limerick so did it myself)
