There was a man from Manchester
who had some fame as a jester
he created a rhyme
and spiced it with thyme
but that turned off his investor

off Topic: The Limerick Competition has the first eight places in the recommended thread list I think this is an achievement!
The competition's gone really well. I only came up with the idea after seeing lemon and ghost at it and thinking of rookie thought it might be an idea.

I'll be starting the voting later tomorrow but if people want to continue posting their works of art that's great.

Entry accepted.

No one (as far as I know) has attempted to eat the city of Chester but there's a first time for everything. And Cheshire cheese isn't up to much.
I have edited it since...the orginal is quoted in VR's post…

Stolen nursery rhymes

Miss Muffet has lost her whey
It was stolen by a thief named Dave
He hid it so well
He now cannot tell
In which hiding place he has put it.

A room with a 'great' view

Nicole had a room with a view
The magnificent sight of the louvre
But the weather was hot
So she took off her top
Now we've all seen Nicole in the nude.

Developing Chess Tactics

I once tried to open a4
To open my rooks front door
At great personal cost
My games were all lost
And now I don't do it no more (unless pissed)

Not joking Mr Rusty.

A. I've never thought to look before.

B. I am a techno - twit, old dog, new tricks, you feel me...?

C. Here's a last one from me.

Let us Pray.

There is a young lady called Tess
Whose life is a terrible mess
Then she woke up one day
And decided to pray
But her life is a mess nonetheless.

I shall now press the recommended button thing, for the first time...

Ok, my sincere apology!

I had thought you were joking as you been on the site for 5 years and Recommended sticks out like a sore thumb on the top right hand side of the page.

No need to apologize, dear chap, the depths of my stupidity and technical ignorance amaze even me sometimes, quite often, actually.

Anyway, I just looked, we limerick people are doing rather well, aren't we? I feel all puffed - up.
