Notice of absence from Doggerel Dave
Not absent - still here!
Keep Calm and Carry On Poeming. 😂
Not absent - still here!
Keep Calm and Carry On Poeming. 😂
Andy needed a new car now;
He had dueled with both red and yellow trucks.
His blue car exhausted, became depressed;
Contacted dealer for something deluxe.
Dealer agreed but the wait time five years -
Tuesday twentieth March would be the date.
So Andy enquired AM or PM?
But why? Plumber is due on that day, Mate.

Had to chuckle at this bit of humor. Yeah, 5 years on the car, but the plumber? Had to laugh.
It's like that a bit here as well. Doctors in particular.
Thanks for making me laugh.
Cheers Phil - although a light hearted look at a common if slightly exaggerated situation when it comes to tradies, the doctor situation is more serious - the beginning of a trend here in Oz.
I'm smiling, then chuckling! If Andy has a mac and wellingtons on hand the wait not be so bad. Maybe to save a little time, the plumber can deliver the car. Loved this one!
I'm sure Andy's optimism will pull him through. No sign of him at the moment, so he's probably taken your advice and donned the mac and wellingtons......
I am here, don't need mac and wellingtons, skin is waterproof!
Andy
sounds about write ... more than merely chucklworthy mate .. but Brexit is only half the story ....... N
Which half, Nev?
Seen Andy about? - hope he hasn't got lost....
Love this one Dave and so will Andy - - that long-term appointment a plumber favours reminds me of -garden-helps who promise to return next week but will never mention they mean next year.
Thanks for the endorsement, Fay. I felt the humour had an element of truth about it.
Reminds me of how lucky I am. I live in an independent aged care unit (great - just 26 places, in the community; not your typically large facility) I pay a very modest maintenance fee in lieu of rent, and should I require a plumber or other tradie, I just phone the office (we are a satellite of a much larger establishment) and all is promptly arranged.
My new blue car that I have is fabulous, I only had to wait six months for it to be produced, it needed chips, we just cannot live without chips nowadays. LOL
Andy
Love the last line D.D.
