DAY 21 - NAPOWRIMO 2011

For Mad Kane’s humour blog

And posted to Writers Island


CHUMLEY WOOSTERSHIRE TAME

A guy with a very long name
Claimed the same was to blame for his shame
Not just double-barrelled
It started with Harold
And went on – Cholmondley-Worcestershire-Thame

    Stan, you have excelled yourself. If this doesn't win the limerick-off I will eat my computer mouse.

    Great stuff, this one. Love the name, would hate to address the envelope (does anyone use envelopes anymore?)

    Ahh, but so much needed. Thanks so much for a good laugh. It really clears the air, and I agree with Viv, this should take first place.
