The Zipper

(my tribute to Limerickmeister Jack Ellison, smile engine extraordinaire)

I remember the time when I caught a
bit of my body parts where I oughtn't a
in much pain did I struggle
with my bits I did juggle
it really did make my eyes water!

Reminds me of a coach trip to Skegness we did in nineteen eighty one- Much beer was consumed, and on the way back Billy Lane needed a toilet break. On an unlit road, miles from anywhere, he relieved himself. On an electric fence.
