Robin treated his men down at the inn To sexy wenches, food, mead and some gin All got drunk on the mead Then got high on the weed Friar Tuck said “it’s not right it’s a sin.” Robin’s outlaws were enjoying the night And with the sheriffs men started a fight The men ran for their lives There was lots of high fives The peasants cheered at this comical sight. Written 31st January 2019 For limerick 3 contest Sponsored by Joseph May.

G'day Tom … even way back then, a night on the slops had repercussions. I'll bet Friar Tuck had a puff or two in between eating venison - thanks Tom - Lindsay

Oh! I really like these two limericks, my friend. Seems that #2 winners are like Avis-Rent-a-Car's old motto: 'We Try Harder!' That you've done---and you've certainly succeeded. This is a #1 in my book, Tom. ~ Gershon
