Jan Allison Poet Limerick

Notes About The Poem

The Bushy's tent used to be on the promenade then moved to the Villa Marina gardens below - you can see how popular it is at TT time!

Buy Bushy's Beer

The Bushy’s crew brewed lots of beer
But TT is cancelled this year
Please give Martin a ring
Four great beers he will bring
To doorsteps to give you good cheer

Two pints cost you only four quid
So do as my husband just did
Call four nine four three nine three
Delivery has no fee ...
They’re only too pleased to get rid!

David Smith April 24, 2020 at 5:24 AM Love their slogan, it is Iconic. Ask them to send some to NZ, We will test if their future in this type of liquid, is solid. Queenstown has been hit hard here with no tourists. Is Isle of of man in control of who comes to town. Hope you have helped save the company with the words you have shared here. Jan Allison April 25, 2020 at 4:37 PM I met Martin when we were out walking the other day. they are managing to keep their heads above water by selling direct and through some retail outlets. we are on lockdown and it seems to be working only 1 new case in 3 days... they have relaxed some rules I think its too early but only time will tell. stay safe my friend:-) hugs Jan xx

Joseph May April 23, 2020 at 8:08 PM Delivery beer to your front door is great for sure, Nice lim Jan Jan Allison April 25, 2020 at 4:30 PM It's not only free delivery but he is so trusting that people will pay by bank credit - i leave cash in an envelope on our wall as I get beer for our neighbour too... I ring the bell and leave it on their doorstep:-) hugs Jan xx

Michelle Faulkner April 23, 2020 at 3:16 PM Sorry, not really a beer drinker - now, if they deliver margaritas.... Jan Allison April 25, 2020 at 4:26 PM I rarely drink alcohol but had to try and do my best to promote the company:-) hugs Jan xx

John Watt April 23, 2020 at 10:36 AM Will they deliver to California? I'll be sure to tip well! Nice write, dear Jan. I raise a pint for Bushy's! Jan Allison April 25, 2020 at 4:25 PM I think they would if they could John they must have massive stocks as we usually get about 40.000 visitors at TT:-) hugs Jan xx

Harry Horsman April 23, 2020 at 12:43 AM Oh wow, These Marketing skills to be added to your poetry prowess Jan, great limericks.. Jan Allison April 24, 2020 at 3:29 PM thanks Harry I was so delighted his phone number ended with a three, I am doing my best to promote what is happening on our little Island:-) hugs Jan xx

Cecilia Macfarlane April 22, 2020 at 7:34 PM Terrific limericks Andrea. Cheap beer and free delivery, times sure have changed. Hugs Jan Allison April 24, 2020 at 3:29 PM Thanks Cecilia:-) hugs jan xx

Mark Koplin April 22, 2020 at 4:07 PM Great one Jan! Now I’m thirsty Jan Allison April 24, 2020 at 2:55 AM Wish i could get some shipped out to you Mark - folk come from all over the world for the races so you can imagine how much beer they make in advance!:-) hugs Jan xx

Judy Ball April 22, 2020 at 3:27 PM HaHa Well done but never touch the stuff. This did make me smile though. And Bushy got a free commercial. Good job. God Bless, JB Jan Allison April 24, 2020 at 2:54 AM I don't drink beer either and yes it is a commercial for the beer but they have posted my poem on their web site so its good exposure for me too lol :-) hugs jan xx

Anne-Lise Andresen April 22, 2020 at 2:05 PM - Free delivery   ... sounded great ... but, I don't like beer ... Cheers, my friend :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :) Jan Allison April 24, 2020 at 2:53 AM Nor me Anne-Lise but I had to do a poem to try and publicise the beer is available and with delivery to the door its exceptional service:-) hugs Jan xx

Rico Leffanta April 22, 2020 at 1:20 PM Four quid for two pints? Sounds more like the Ail of Man! Aloha! Rico Jan Allison April 24, 2020 at 2:51 AM Martin's business could be 'aleing' if he doesn't get rid of his stock!,We bumped into him when we were out walking yesterday and he is managing to sell it in some retail outlets too which is wonderful:-) hugs Jan xx

Darlene De Beaulieu April 22, 2020 at 12:53 PM Hello Jan Allison, I like different types of beer. I will always try something new in beer. Have a nice day my friend. Be safe. Hugs. Jan Allison April 24, 2020 at 2:47 AM I don't drink beer or I would be helping them out too lol:-) hugs jan xx

Jennifer Proxenos April 22, 2020 at 12:41 PM What a clever idea - i'm sure more people with brewery will follow suit. Here they have banned the transporting of, buying and selling of any alcohol - enjoyed your poem Jan, Blessings, Jennifer. Jan Allison April 24, 2020 at 2:45 AM The TT brings people from across the globe so lots is brewed in advance - better to sell it off than to waste it!:-) hugs Jan xx

Tom Cunningham April 22, 2020 at 5:07 AM Does he deliver to Worcestershire lol.? Shame TT cancelled, yet they let Cheltenham races go ahead. Saw on the news breweries pouring beer down the drain. Tom. Jan Allison April 22, 2020 at 5:13 AM I said to Martin it was such a shame they only delivered locally!! It's a very wise business move to sell it off at a reduced price rather than let it go to waste - TT is such a massive event the brewery will have a massive stock... hubby and neighbours are only making a tiny dent in it:-) hugs Jan xx
