When Father Ted farted in church The Bishop (who looked just like lurch) Said ‘say six hail Mary’s then keep off the dairies’ I know cos I’ve done my research! Just before you stand in the pulpit Do digest a small charcoal biscuit Then clench your butt cheeks So no foul wind leaks Be mindful in church where you sit! If there’s flatulence neath your attire Just ensure you’re stood next to the choir As it really annoys All the little choir boys To giggle is all they desire! 08/30/21

Jan, I went looking for something you wrote back in time. The title is too much really. You've supplied a lot of ideas and makes me think of some of the reasons to avoid crowds of people. This is a very funny subject and just makes me laugh. Smiles!

Congratulations Jan on a fantastically funny POTD, how times have changed, we used to get a slap on the head for looking sideways in church, Father Ted is still hilarious and groundbreaking 25 years on, cheers David
