Another long weekend’s upon us and we’re ready, set to go,
To get amongst the bream again, along the river Tambo.

To celebrate with fishing while, we’re toasting to...

The kids now start their summer term holidays, hip hip hooray
Thinking of the things we can all do over the bright sunny days

The universal worm has got some competition now,
since ‘Sandy’ took me out to Bateson’s dam.
This don’t include the ‘whitchys’ we get in a broken bough,
nor ‘scrubbies’ on the hooks we have to cram
to hide the...

gave him welcome if temporary shade
a kaleidoscope of mockingbirds filling its branches
it was no longer possible to be blind
but very possible to be jailed
for being unaware of our...

By Stanley Russell Harris
The new mad author

Where you might well ask?
Felixstowe,at the beach huts.
Three times now, those blinking vandals.
Have struck at my beach...

The vampire saw the campfire and was hovering around 
For all the little children were just sitting on the ground 
He doesn't mind the fire, it’s not ultra violet light
So he listens to his dinner...

You can't spend all your time hiding them, in your bottom drawer
In time they will all work their way out, and when they do its war

Thousands of years of incarceration those demons are all due...

around me veggie garden, so I could give it some defence
from marauding sheep and cattle that some keep on their block,
and forget about...

If I were a real pokemon.
Trap me...

Flipping Heck! - they're at it again!
There's a shuffling noise from the drawer
It's clear they're having a promiscuous party
And swapping their partners once more

Handouts when Trident needs replacin’
Buck house needs renovatin’

I've been shoved out in the back yard,
A bit ruff, don't you agree?
It's not that I've disgraced myself,
No,It's because SHE caught a flea!

[Warning - This Acrostic may contain profanity…
I have checked and I couldn’t find any, but, well
something’s just kinda niggling me… honest guv]

For you, who must remain in Asphodel,
We weep for you, who have forever fell.

Yet we, who lost the moment, gained all time.
In falling, do we hope that others climb.

Santa stood in the warehouse
Full of nearly empty shelves
Last night they’d been ram raided
By a bunch of discontented elves

Recently infiltrated and recruited 
Into an association of packing staff
Whose ideas and demands and wants
Caused Santa to...

And Skadi had her way much snow today 
Imparted volunteer job hopes soar high.
Each Thor’s day , a shining star in a black sky
Orange in my throat and gob smacked, what to  say?
And never...

Get thee hence! Get thee hence!
Away the riffraff from my fence
Ye've rattled window and rattled doors
Till there's no peace upon the moors
The hallowed folk have left their graves
To rid themselves these noisome knaves
The tyrants peal...
