[Two Fat Feet]

some light entertainment for those of us who don't have a meaningful game to go to this afternoon ...

 

 

I was blue and lonely; I couldn't sleep a wink

And I could only get unconscious if I'd had too much to drink

There was somehow something wrong somewhere and each day seemed grey and dead

The seeds of desperation were growing in my head

I needed inspiration; a brand new start in life

Somewhere to place affection - but I didn't want a wife

And then by lucky chance I saw, in a special magazine,

An ad that was unusual - the like I'd never seen

"Experience something different with our new imported toy!

She's loving, warm, inflatable - and a guaranteed joy"

She came all wrapped in cardboard, all pink and shrivelled down

A breath of air was all she needed to make her lose that frown

I took her to the bedroom and pumped her with some life

And later, in a moment, that girl became my wife

And so I sit her in a corner, and sometimes stroke her hair

And when I'm feeling naughty, I blow her up with air

She's cuddly and she's bouncy, she's like a rubber ball

I bounce her in the kitchen and I bounce her in the hall

And now my life is different since Sally came my way

I wake up in the morning and have her on a tray

She's everything they said she was, and I wear a permanent grin

And I only have to worry in case my girl wears thin ...

 

 

 

 

 

Let's see who's the first cleverclogs to tell us who actually wrote that!

err....Sting?

[coupwotcoup]

I thought it was Anne Widdecombe until I read the last few lines!

[Two Fat Feet]

almost! Half a point.

[coupwotcoup]

Burlimey....how pedantic do we need to get here?

[Two Fat Feet]

Glad the other half a point is still up for grabs!

[coupwotcoup]

Cannot be assed to do a Google search again!!!!

You watching the stiffs today? The snow should be here by 3pm, so it is duvet time for me!

[coupwotcoup]

Alright then...Andy Summers. Was he Donna's half brother? Or Anne's brother come to that?

[Two Fat Feet]

half point deducted for admitting you cheated.

[Two Fat Feet]

but yes, Andy Summers. Probably no more related to the other Summers than he was to Mike & Bernie Winters.

Bugger.. I don't need a web cam, I can envisage that sly, self-effacing grin you always give at times like this!!!

You realise that at the time of writing, this thread possibly has the highest proportion of replies to views of any in the history of this messageboard ...

Sadness personified or what? It tells you how bored I am coz I was checking to see who is on line and spotted an Aylesbury fan who's handle is AUFC till I die. So I casually asked: "So what happens when you do die, have you left instructions for somebody to change your handle?" Fair point don't you think?

And on your original point, this thread has now the least amount of spelling mistakes too!!!!

No what I mean....
