Overheard

A party and a baptism together? They wouldn’t do that again... never! Someone said, ‘Cheese is nice.’ The priest heard, ‘Jesus Christ.’ Which stuck with that poor kid forever. 7 December 2020 For Christmas Limerick contest Sponsor Alexis Y PS... if you hear that someone in the UK just got incinerated by a rogue lightning strike... it was nice knowing you all.

Thanks Linda. Yes, the lightning missed... so I chanced my arm and wrote ‘A Christmas Story’... think I’d better stay indoors for a while. Terry

Hi, Lindsay, couldn’t get back to you any sooner... I was too busy dodging thunderbolts! Glad you enjoyed. Thanks.
