A weight off my mind I wish the scales Would fall from my eyes When I stand and weigh myself The scales don’t tell me any lies Telling Porkie Pies Have you heard the saying ‘I’m as happy as a pig in muck’ Well I’ve just had a mud bath Then why don’t I smell like bacon To do or not to do… that is the Question. A point to ponder… Why do I tidy the house Only for it to get messed up again It’s a vicious circle If I leave the mess Will I maintain the status quo? What is Randomling Contest?
