Here Boy

I’m sure she would have preferred dogs to either of our kids
And I told her so when our marriage hit the skids
She got a decent lawyer, a legal plan to hatch
So now she lives there with our children, Trixiebell and Patch

Very amusing. Not related to Bob Geldof by any chance?

Bob Geldoff, crikey, haven’t seen Bob since in I saw him in the shampoo aisle at the supermarket… he had just picked up some ‘Go & Wash’. Sorry, Craig… that joke is like a nervous tick… someone says ‘Bob Geldoff’… I tell that joke. Cheers Craig. Terry
