Clean your house from top to bottom – any other chores you want me to do? A cup of steaming coffee is ready – I know you just love your brew So you want me to get the shopping – I’ll have it right on cue Anything special you require, I’ll pay and have it delivered to you Run your bath – no problem, I’ll put some bubbles in it too And my babysitting service is free – no dollar spends are due Have a wonderful meal out with Tom, a treat for you is overdue No problem what time you return – I’ll bid you both adieu Abby will be fine, I’ve written a story for her about a kangaroo Now remember I’ve paid for the taxi and your meal - it's cordon blue Contest – what contest! As if I’m trying to influence you ... Even a honourable mention will do! 10~11~15 You want it bad – then bribe me contest Sponsor Casarah Nance

You should want to win, Jan... I find this to be one of the best playful contest. Anyone who joins is not afraid to have fun, or bribe the sponsor. LOL.. JK... Imagine if I entered.
