Little Willie dressed in sashes, Fell in the fire and was burn't to ashes, Presently the room got chilly, But no-one liked to poke poor Willie. Lets have a few more and share them.. |

the song of canaries never varies when they're moulting they're revolting and... to be said in a broad Yorkshire accent (Lancs will do at a pinch) Fuzzy Wuzzy was a bear Fuzzy Wuzzy had no hair Fuzzy Wuzzy wasn't fuzzy was he and not forgetting I am a fairy my name is Nuff I am a fairy fair enough |

My Grandad used to tell us one similar to yours Marion. Sam Sam the dirty old man Washed his hair in the frying pan. Combed his hair with a donkeys tail And scrubbed his belly with his big toe nail. FIL Vinegar Bill from over the hill. He never worked and he never will Would rather have a pint than a gill. |

T'was in the Month of Liverpool. In the city of July, The flowers were singing gaily, And the birds were in full bloom. I saw a house ten miles off, it was just out of site . It stood alone between two others. And it was black washed white!!! |
