So you put washing up liquid in your Pinot Grigio eh?
A clean tasting wine I guess - good idea Andy.
Oh lol, good writes Michael.
Cheers O
Thanks MICHAEL ~ One liners are (relatively) easy to write but difficult to digest ~ I like the "pattern" of this poem and it's one I might plagiarise ! Now abideth these FOUR ~ but the greatest if these is: ELTON JOHN WITHOUT VOCALS He trained at the Royal Academy to be a CONCERT PIANIST ~ which he is ~ but his hands (a necessity for a pianist) were the wrong size & shape. When he left the Academy someone suggested he tried singing and the rest is MYSTERY ! the same is true of LIBERACE etc. Thanks for sharing ~ Yours BRIAN
Thanks Brian - my favourite EJ song is 'A Song For Guy' in which he sings very little - lovely piece. Not so sure that these are that easy - they take a lot of thinking to get the words right and these have been continually adjusted over a period of time sitting in the draft.
Ha ha - a most unexpected read Michael - loved every line of clever description.
I am always smiling when I write these - pleased they give you a smile too - thanks Fay.
LOL these are great! As is your watercolor painting. Enjoyed!
Thank you so much Christina
Laugh out loud at the Elton John quip, better sounds are heard at the mothers union under 12's karaoke festival i fear. What ever happened to that mans singing ability ...it used to be good but...
No 4 reminds me that the best place for silent discharge cannot be other than in the check-out queue on a friday night shopping trip accompanied by a disgraceful grimace 'pointed' at the person ahead of you in the queue.
Definately brought good fun to me again here... thank you.
I am minded of the peter Sellers lift sketch which always males me laugh - thanks Dusk.
Lol. ...great piece of writing!
Thank you MR
Thank you so much, Michael, I got exactly four (4) smiles, so you should get four (4) stars!
Four smiles 4 today - thanks Fred.
You deceived me, I was going in for a sad read about love, and I came out with the corners of my mouth wrapped around the top of my head!
So pleased it gave you a big grin - this site can be a bit full of woe at times and we do need to smile.
