Auntie Ethel had rather large boobs, Sometimes they used to hang loose, Her husband Fred, Looked at her and said, You should tuck them into your boots.

Whatever Aunt Ethel says, there is no hope when competing with age 99!! Best to look at the bright side (if there is one) and face reality :) Hugs // paul

Dear Jan, That made me laugh and so well written. I remember my mom's sister Aunt Anne coming to visit from Philadelphia to the farm where we lived and she took us young children to the pond to swim for the day. Unfortunately, she decided to sunbathe naked while my two sisters and I swam. LOL!! - Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel

Hi Jan! Sweet form for picturesque humor, you are so talented! Similar, my older brother (71) likes to motorcycle from Minneapolis to Grand Portage (Canadian Border) & back in one day, about 10 hrs ...one time he slid out on gravel returning home almost here, thrown over bike, almost killed him (has recovered) we're sitting in hospital hallway anxiously waiting for news... Mom (93 then) says "he's a "lucky chinaman" my niece gently whispered to her "Gigi, you can't say that anymore!"

Aww thanks for the 'talented comment lol - I just have fun trying to make folk laugh with my silly poems - this one has a second verse which i couldnt use as the contest is for 1 limerick so it will be in my next book. it will be my last book - I can only write so much toilet humour and risque rhymes and I think I will have exhausted the subject lol:-) hugs Jan xx As for your brother he sounds an amazing character and how times have changed from your mum's comment. Happy Sunday xx
