“The lady wife, like most members of her sex, has an inordinate number of birthdays. As she grows older these undoubtedly increase in frequency.”… …“And at the end of the day she had the satisfaction of returning home having taken seven Leicestershire wickets at the cost of a mere seventeen runs.” ;D Wonderful stuff, Nursie. Tinniswood is much missed... sheer brilliance.  Will this cover do? |

'The Good Companions' -- JB Priestley - Roger McGough I like a good poem one with lots of fighting in it. Blood, and the clanging of armour. Poems against Scotland are good, and poems that defeat the French with crossbows. I don't like poems that aren't about anything. Sonnets are wet and a waste of time. Also poems that don't know how to rhyme. If I was a poem I'd play football and get picked for England. |
