Notes About The Poem

Dining's Out

New place Sounds ace For lunch Or brunch Meets Dom And Tom Got new Menu Reveals Good deals Endorse Three course Deals viewed Choose food Veg soup Vile gloop Tastes off Can’t scoff I heave Food leave Await Mains plate Dead fly On pie There’s lice In rice Burnt fries No lies! Screams loud Draws crowd Staff look for cook He’s drunk As skunk My pud Not good On pear Dog hair Gets bill Big thrill It’s free For me For friend’s Full spends They'll pay Their way Won't tip Get’s gyp Waiter Hater! Return … we’ll spurn! 09/25/20

Jan congratulations my friend on your top win - a hilarious footle but certainly a place to avoid going to dine. Hope all good with your Mom. Blessings and hugs, Jennifer.

This should make quite a number of people happy to be eating safe and sound in their own home! Well done! Aloha! Rico

to be honest Rico many people we know are still not going out here even though we are covid free, many say they are happier at home and have lost their confidence about going out, it is sad on many levels. we met friends last week we hugged and one said that's the first hug i've had since February (apart from ones from her hubby) so we hugged again!:-( hugs Jan xx

Yuck, fine flow of footles Jan. The horror stories you hear about eating out, not just cheap eateries either. (check out my lims if you get a minute, (If you eat out DON'T READ) see some of the comments. Back now, feel like a zombie, Hope you're well. Tom
