Severance

There was a butcher from Elmsgate Who drank every day to celebrate. One tipsy day at the chopping block He swung his cleaver ad hoc. Now he knows just how to amputate.

G'day Paul... Thanks for the wit and continuing chuckle. I'll bet the butcher doesn't do a repeat even if he does know how to amputate. Lindsay
