We are all booked in and ready to roll
or should I say ready to bowl The balls have been picked but scores not easy to predict My fingers may get stuck in the holes and fling my body way out of control I might end up face to face with a skittle go arse over head - yeah you may laugh just a little Or maybe I'll score my first strike knock everything down oh that's what I'd like my competitive streak let loose a winner just ready to produce More like a few narrow misses and split pins I'm wondering if I'd bowl better after a few gins No it may make me stagger and talk like Mick Jagger But whatever the results it's just fun congrats to the one who has won The pins can now rest for we gave it our best I think I'd quite like to bowl again. Happy 18th Birthday Ricky! Thanks for reading today, join me again tomorrow for Free from Friday Take care for now.

I'd like to be a baker on Bake Off I'd like a stopper I could really show off My cake it would be fine with lemon and a hint of lime Must be great to be a baker on Bake Off My pastry would probably not bake I'd pipe icing that would turn into a lake No Hollywood handshake for you just a quizzical look from our Pru I better not even think about going on Bake Off I really wouldn't know where to start to bake a prize winning tart My ingredients would go everywhere flour and sugar mixed in with my hair I've a feeling I may not be on Bake Off I don't know if I'd like the technical bit with vague instructions that don't really fit I'd get in a muddle and need a great big cuddle I'll leave the Bake Off for now I admire their patience and desire as they rush around and perspire A passion with a glimmer oh who will be the winner of The Great British Bake Off 2017 Good luck bakers!! Thanks for reading today Come back tomorrow for Free From Friday Take care. Oh my ageing bladder was the inspiration for a verse this week. As I've got older I seem to spend more time on the toilet, I suppose that's quite normal and approaching the menopause too. I'm not complaining, ageing is a privilege denied by some people at my age so I am thankful for the body I have, even with it's weak leaky bits and stretch marks too.
So here goes, a poem about my bladder.....enjoy!! Why do I always want the loo? I'm permanently on the throne it's untrue My bladder's a tad bit shady and I have shares in Tena Lady Not kidding I'm forever on the loo It's always a bit of a trick to find somewhere blooming well quick I'm crossing my legs Give me a toilet my body it begs I'm desperately needing the loo Is it childbirth that did this to me? or middle age that makes me want to pee Is it too much drinking? Or is my bladder just shrinking? Who knows? I just always need the loo It's hard for a girl to take a quick leak there's dignity required and a technique To squat somewhere rough from waist down in the buff Oh no I prefer a proper loo I may shock a farmer or come face to face with a Llama With knickers pulled down the wildlife would frown No I need to be going to a loo Who knew one could write a poem about wee toilet humour is always the key It's really quite funny having a bladder that is runny Goodbye now I'm off to the loo I know!! probably too much information but it does make me giggle sometimes not too much obviously as I need to prevent any accidents. If I go out for a walk with my son and I even mention that I've got to visit the toilet he will throw his arms up and say ' yeah I know you've got to go to the loo' as if in despair!! When you've got to go, you've got to go I reply. Thank you for reading today and please come back tomorrow for Free from Friday (promise to leave the toilet humour behind). Take care for now........ I just couldn't decide what to have to eat yesterday, I wasn't in the mood to cook and ended up in the end having a bowl of bananas and custard because that's all that I fancied.
I thought I would use my lack of appetite as inspiration for my verse today..... I don't know what to have for my tea my appetite seems to have left me My stomach it rumbles but my brain it stumbles on what I should have for my tea It's not that I haven't been shopping my cupboards are positively popping I'm not being lazy just feel a bit hazy deciding what I should have for my tea I've already cooked for the kids but for me something forbids Ok I'm watching my weight and some foods I have to eliminate but there must be something to have for my tea I'll snack a bit and see how I go to test if my hunger will grow I'm not going to get flappy as Slimming World will be happy that no syns were used with my tea Nope nothing tickles my fancy a takeaway would be way too chancy It would be very quick but I'd be stuffed and feel a bit sick no not having that for my tea Maybe I am a bit tired with nothing really to be desired I'm off to see what I can do get off my arse, try something new then.....I'll have something for my tea Thank you for reading, I'll be back tomorrow for Free from Friday. Take care. |
