A worker in his factory in Ealing
peed on the floor whilst kneeling
his boss quite austere
said ‘you can’t do that here’
so he promptly pee’d on the ceiling.

- Comment from author about the poem: This is the first of several inspired by Teddy.15 - thanks Teddy. Plus another cartoon drawn at a moments notice to accompany an article about a pothole which is on the boundary between two counties and which neither accept responsibility for. The article is about to appear in a local paper.

Oh lol, good write and pic M.
Who's that character, a bit like your in the pic, who peers over walls, I think?
That's Chad I believe - a credible character - or should I say Chada Berble?
Yes, probably related to the Berles - there's millions of 'em!
Quite a feat! Trying to escape the peedrops.
Love that word: 'Peedrops'. Is it patented? Can I use it? 😁😁
And so it came to me:
And into the loo went Cyclops
And out came the dettol and mops
For such was his fate
He couldn’t see straight
And he covered the floor with his peedrops

Like yer little 'Wot no...' man (presumably 'man') in car, Michael...
When I was about 15 on a school trip we were actually caught in no mans land between two sets of customs control between France and Germany when our coach broke down. We couldn't get help fom either side. Eventially everyone had to get out and we literally pushed the coach across into France before anyone would attend.
(lol) "It's the same the whole world over..." (slightly different context but still relevant).
With respect to your current pothole situation - I'd suggest patience is in this case the key: Come June, as the end of the financial year looms and councils hunt for work, then likely your pothole will be filled twice.
In the flat up above dont you know
Theyre aware of the peeing below
to show their bad feeling
punched a hole in that ceiling
stuck their bum through and let one go!
as fast as you like - in a wink
Ealing was full of the stink
the air had turned foul
dogs started to howl
and the tellies all went on the blink
the worker was hauled up in court
for the occasion when he was caught short
to pee on the ceiling
was the wrong place i'm feeling
for a bladder containing one quart
he didnt half feel unwell
when they hauled him off to a cell
like little jack horner
he peed in the corner
and emptied his bowels as well
the gov'ner would have none of this
the worker was takin the piss
whilst you're in prison care
we'll have none of that here
but from his trousers there came a loud hiss
don't get me started....
Brilliant - do post them - we all need a laugh.
Done! - with an instruction to read your post included.
Okay, get this folks .. Having been born in Northants, which is just about as far from the sea as ya can get on this here Island of ours (sorry for those who live outside, you will just have to imagine it) .. and my only son being born in Leicestershire ......... (same thing in brackets really) .. I was first compelled to savour Mr. M. Edwards cartoon sketch before moving on to the limerick he pinned up there ............. Now given the info I have shared with you guys & galls ... & for no end of obvious and less obvious reasons, that most definitely aint a scribbled J.S pun .. I have to tell you all Limerick # 90 is absolutely spot on ................ Bloomin well limmed MIchael ................ N 🙂
Actually the pot holes fall beneath a bridge which used to accomodate a rail line but is now a footpath - it's a single track road out of our village which is much used by the locals. Cheers N .....
Very good limerick Michael.
Andy
