Dirty Windshield.
















You missed the turn, you silly arse,
We’re off the road and on the grass.
So stop the car
Right where you are,
Get out the sponge and clean the glass!

Boy oh boy, Tess is making it hard!

  6. Response from driver:

    My dear
    Why must you be so crass
    We missed the turn 'tis true
    Windshield's fine
    No need to fuss
    Just had an urge to cuddle you

    1. If I had but known that was your intention,
      The windshield would never have rated a mention!
      But wait on my dear,
      I still have one fear...
      I wonder if petting will strain the suspension!

    2. Springs and shocks
      Are working fine
      Front and rear alike
      Missed your chance, you silly man
      I’m off to ride my bike

    3. Now hold on there and don't be terse,
      It's just my nature- risk averse.
      So let's go back
      To our love shack...
      (If I can ever find reverse!)

    1. Thanks Nellie, it sometimes feels I am channelling Spike Milligan! He was another helpless idiot. Did you know there is a bridge in Woy Woy named after him?

    3. Ha! It is really called Woy, as is Wagga (pronounced wogga) but it passes the ears too quickly to register, so we say it twice. Wagga on the other hand, can be found on maps as Wagga Wagga, as can Jilliby Jilliby and Grong Grong. All of the above is a lie. Actually, our indigenous forebears have a base 5 numbering system I have been told, and apparently that allows them to estimate numbers of sheep for instance with great accuracy. But where there was a big mob of anything or where there was need to express an extreme, the name was repeated. Woy Woy means 'much water', Grong Grong means 'very bad camping place' so one wonders why the silly white fellas built a town there!

    2. Why limit yourself to just one identity . I think we are all entitled to at least 72 ! . It could take me a while to set up that many blogs, what a nightmare cor the draconian corporate state if we all realised ourselves in this way ! . Whoops, sounds like Ned talking, Dunnit ? , theyll never catch him in the snowy mountains.

    3. I agree that following people with multiple blogs is a pain in the arse, unless second and subsequent blogs are special interest. However, I think Ned is still with you.

  10. I think it was the river you went off into, not the grass - I'm pretty sure a sponge isn't going to help.

    LOL at you & Helen - I could read you guys all day :)
