However ….. I just had this sperm of the moment idea...\
How about a Sainter Limerick Competition????
To cast our minds off this wonderful, new ground situation we all now find ourselves struggling to cope with!
My inspiration here is twofold....
Firstly ,]
as I mentioned , reading through the OP's pondering the ins and outs this week now that Kingy has earnt himself a rest it seems , and the TipRat and the Gilbo seem set to return. ...
I just thought there's a chance our Fisher of the Sam variety, may well pick up their Fisher , noting we even have another "fisherman" in the wings as well, and….
Secondly, and way out of leftfield….I was therein reminded of one of my all time favorite "limericks" viz...
There was a young fellow named Fisher
Who was fishing for fish in a fissure,
When a cod, with a grin,
Pulled the fisherman in ...
Now they're fishing the fissure for Fisher.
Stupid I know ......
but what about having a go and composing a Sainter limerick ??
!
It's easy peasy !
You just stick to the centuries old rhyming , sing song patern
and I'm sticking my neck out here and offering a very exciting prize!!
(clue: my name & avatar!!)
OK For Starters ...
Could be present day champs eg...
There was a Saint Skipper named Roo....
Who....dah de de de dah dah ,
Dah dah de de de
Dah dah de de de
Dah dah de de de Dah Dah!! Too easy !
or Past Heros ...
Perhaps Greatest of all was the Doc....
(though the intention is here not to shock!!! )
OK so keep it clean for General Exhibition..right?
Villans even ...
We once had a gun named Robby Muir.....
Rhymes with? .Demure (yes, but not really)...manure...mm .. are you sure?????
Or whatever turns you on in terms of Sainter History ....
At the famous SCG one day,
A pig was set loose to run astray....
Dah dah de ded dah
Dah dah de de dah
And we all had a hell of a day….or did we?
GOT THE IDEA ...too easy!!!
enough prompts ...have a go!
( check out the avatar ... put Kingy and Mynott together (that’s cryptic)..and there's a pot of gold for the best effort ...maybe the next best too!
that's a promise
