I just love that your limerick is in French, and that the words chosen are easy for the reader to figure out. Drôle et exceptionnel! Cherchez La Femme

Heya Pangie delighted to see you, my French too is pretty sketchy, so I picked some words here that almost translate themselves, glad you had a laugh anyway! Happy new year!! Cheers David

Definitely the holster would indeed be quite fitting for this upstanding Limerick Tom lol! Cheers David
