And so it begins....

Software
But as opera's go
Quendalon
This threepenny show
kagomeshuko
Is more suited for somebody's wife.
kagomeshuko
Sorry, for got the line break!
Chalky
I chanced upon Lady Godiva
NotJohn
Who said; "If you'll give me a fiver,
Phil
I'll cut off my hair
Knobbly
But I hope you're aware
Pablo
on a horse, I'm not such a good driver.
Quendalon
At luncheon with old Friar Tuck
Phil
We dined on a stew of braised duck
cfm
We saved the skimmed fat
Rosie
To give to the cat
Simons Mith
And using the catflap, she stuck!
Chalky
Thenceforth to Maid Marian's for tea
[last line .. worth the wait. Nice one SM]
NotJohn
A generous hostess is she
Simons Mith
A Battenburg cake
Phil
(The marzipan's fake!)
Quendalon
Goes well with a glass of Chablis
Pablo
In the pub with my friend Little John
Phil
I thought 'What the hell's going on?'
NotJohn
For he'd got out his staff
cfm
And then just for a laugh
Rosie
He poked it up my sit-upon.
Phil
Lovely!
Chalky
Will Scarlett's a rum sort of fellow
[PPNcR] Heehehehehehe
Phil
"Come chase me!", he's oft-heard to bellow.
NotJohn
Then he shins up a tree
Raak
And cries, "Come, follow me!"
Software
But sadly they're all far too yellow
Quendalon
At the wedding of Alan-a-Dale
Raak
The couple wore matching chain mail
penelope
Her chastity belt
Could hardly be felt
And his, back-to-front, had a tail.
I can hardly believe I wrote that. Inexcusable
Chalky
[pen] I can. Excusable. Funny
Chalky
The green-fingered Sherriff of Nottingham
Phil
Grew cannabis plants, and was potting 'em
[pen] Digusting! I hardly know where to put myself. Somewhat like Alan-a-Dale, it seems!
Software
When in burst the cops
Pablo
And said "Are these hops?"
Rosie
He said "Yes, well done for spotting 'em."
(Ladies) Can't have too much femfilth.
Chalky
Sir Guy of Gis
bourne
gets quite cross
Quendalon
When you stand in the way of his
hoss
Raak
"Begone, varlet!" he'll shout
Software
"Lest I give thee a clout"
Marc
"And into my dungeons you toss."
Marc
Now Robin, that man with the hood
Phil
Claimed his motives were thoroughly good
Raak
Steal from rich, give to poor
Software
(Unlike Osborne and more)
Chalky
Then make merry with maids in the wood.
Kim
And as for that wicked King John
Marc
Who thought that the battle he'd won
Chalky
Would earn him respect
Pablo
Instead, he got decked
Quendalon
So the limerick game could go on
Rosie
In trying to unscramble an egg
Simons Mith
I soon spent an arm and a leg
[Quen] Liked that - good finish!
Chalky
My marbles got lost
Pablo
My salad got tossed
Marc
And I noticed you'd emptied my keg ...
Marc
Though she knew he was called Jack the Ripper
Phil
And she'd heard what he did to young Pippa
Chalky
She couldn't resist
Software
A hazardous tryst
Pablo
So thank God he got stuck in his zipper
Phil
[M, C, S and P] Nicely done, if I say so myself. Let's crack open some pre-war ginger beer!
penelope
This bottle of old ginger beer
why not?
Phil
Was brewed on the banks of the Wear
Kim
In nineteen-oh-two
Chalky
In a stevedore's shoe
No wonder it tastes rather queer
*flees*
Rosie
The worst thing to say to a Swede
Pablo
Is to ask him: "Just how do you breed?"
Kim
His reply, you will see
Software
Just between you and me
Phil
Involves ABBA and herrings. And mead!
Phil
The sunburn that glows on my neck
Software
Will keep my libido in check
Pablo
And apart from the spots
Marc
That I've got by the lots
Rosie
There's the fact I'm a banking exec.
CdM
But really, the public should thank us
Chalky
We are, after all, quite high rankers
penelope
And we haven't, quite yet
Giertrud
learned the alphabet
kagomeshuko
but we're primo at being bankers!
Chalky
This first line should set us alight
penelope
Make us shiver, if we've done it right
Rosie
And further additions
Software
or even omissions
Raak
Well made, yield the greatest delight.
Kim
Rise up, all you left-handed folks!
Marc
And publish your best rated jokes
Rosie
But say nothing sinister
cfm
Or I'll call your minister
Pablo
And believe me, that threat is no hoax.
kagomeshuko
A monk and a rabbi ate dinner
Giertrud
of kerosene and of paint thinner
Rosie
This combustible fare
cfm
Consumed on a dare
kagomeshuko
Made one nor the other a winner.
penelope
Nice finish, Kagje.
A day full of procrastination
Tuj
May contain brief bouts of fascination
Rosie
F'rinstance with clips
Software
Of wiggly hips
Pablo
Or else some discombobulation
wipes brow
Giertrud
A chihuahua and terrier cross
KagomeShuko
Decided that he was the boss
Phil
So the dachshund got fired
cfm
The golden retired
Chalky
And the rest ... ? Not one gives a toss.
Quendalon
There once was a cat from Andorra
penelope
Whose whiskers grew morer and morer
Phil
Till this Pyrenees mog
Rosie
(Real name Quentin Hogg)
Pablo
Belted her one - she got sorer
Chalky
When Mitzi took umbrage, she aimed
.. u s a perhaps? ..
Phil
Through her sights at the one man she blamed
Raak
His scathing reviews
Marc
Was not ment to amuse
KagomeShuko
But some other fellow got framed.
Rosie
Never admit you're from Chatham
Phil
In New Hampshire, the same goes for Stratham
Raak
But if you're from Bath
Pablo
Yer good for a larf
KagomeShuko
KagomeShuko
When it started to rain in Bath
Phil
Ummm, shall we finish the previous Limerick first?
Never admit you're from Chatham
In New Hampshire, the same goes for Stratham
But if you're from Bath
Yer good for a larf
Unlike Strasbourg (once Argentoratum)
When it started to rain in Bath
Raak
I outgrabe like a mome rath
Tuj
But my feeling of whimsy
CdM
Was fleeting and flimsy
forcing attempt denied
irach
As I fled from the borogove path
Chalky
I once lunched in Stow-on-the-Wold
Phil
My starter was greasy and cold
Pablo
The main course inedible
