On Monday I wore my new shoes Out walking I stepped in dog-doos It covered each shoe - They’re no longer blue Just mottled with brown smelly hues! On Tuesday I went to the shops To purchase some lovely lamb chops But when I got there All the shelves were bare ... Bad weather and our ferry stops! On Wednesday I slept in quite late Got delayed to meet my blind date I arrived at the pub He looked like a grub I’ll bypass this ugly primate On Thursday I went for a meal Its location wasn’t ideal This pub ‘Happy Brewer’ Next door to a sewer My disgust I couldn’t conceal! On Friday I’d too much to drink I threw up in my kitchen sink Oh how my head aches And I’ve got the shakes On drinking I’ll have a re-think! TOTAL FICTION - HAVE A LOVELY WEEKEND SOUPERS *** 6/29/18

I love every day I wake up in the morning and it makes me appreciate how good life is - my hubbies cancer was a real wake up call to us both:-) hugs Jan xx

G'day Jan … I'll bet your team gets a hiding on Saturday and on Sunday your inundated with storms. On the bright side, the following week can't get any worse - thanks Jan - Lindsay

At least no one publicly accused you of causing their dear beloved sister to commit suicide.. I might rather step in poo ;)

Jan Allison

Better than being in the poop LM - I saw the poem on poem Hunter - it is disgusting she slandered you - the main thing is she has 'died' so she can;t come back to soup... or will she be re incarnated - just stay strong, you saw from the poem the overwhelming support you have all she needs is pity and psychiatric help:-( hugs jan xx

#2 strikes a chord for real Lin because if the weather is bad the boats don't sail but I too love love 3 and 4. I wrote 1 and 2 and part of 3 on Monday and finally finished today:-) hugs Jan xx
