When the Inspector calls

Aren't many or any finer than Dan me ol mucker & china who now looks out for nightmare cooks or crooks making money off the books with rare meat on dirty hooks in filthy nooks but don't care want to give him a shiner for saying don't be hasty or cheat prepare pukka tasty tucker & succour...safe fayre to eat for every diner...


Owners booming hysteria at inspector criteria 

Kitchens so unclean like a war scene in Liberia

Zooming in you find they're grooming Listeria

Rightly fuming that it is blooming like wisteria


Hardly stellar told fella to have old mortadella

Rank covered in dank mould stank in the cellar

Dan who's a fan of Paul Weller is a fortune teller

Scores on doors stop more spores of Salmonella


Suss some are no faff or fuss a them & us schism

Despairing whiners cuss not caring about criticism

Cleanliness next to Godliness just an anachronism

Foolish witticism as diners get ghoulish botulism


Out of date food they buy deny do things on the fly

Just comply no treason and here’s the reason why

If duff stuff you season on the sly to try and get by

The Council’s the fall guy as folks do die from Ecoli


Hunch lunch or brunch scare dodgy ware of tupper

Owners get shirty but it’s so dirty can’t serve supper

Ask my man Dan this is not a masterplan to scupper

A public sector inspector would rather have a cuppa

Premium Member Eggs, Eggs, Glorious Eggs

Eggs, eggs, glorious eggs
I could eat 'em three time a day
Scrambled, poached or sunny side up
I love 'em any old way

Eggs, eggs, glorious eggs
Like a yummy egg salad sandwich
Devilled eggs, I could eat by the dozen
I'll even try one from an ostrich

Eggs, eggs, glorious eggs
Now to some, this may sound icky
At times I'll add a raw one to my cereal
That's probably not for the finicky

Eggs, eggs, glorious eggs
I'm aware of a most recent recall
Detected a trace of salmonella poisoning
Now that won't deter me at all

Eggs, eggs, glorious eggs
Just keep eating 'em, don't have a choice
A day without these delightful wee treasures
Is the pits, no chance to rejoice

Premium Member He Don'T Know Jack

I signed up for beginner lessons at a gourmet cooking school
Everything was going well at first; the chef was pretty cool
Aroma of well-seasoned chicken parmesan made me drool
But that was before the dramatic entrance of a silly fool

Smilin' like the Cheshire Cat, his name was Dulydunnylac
He went stridin' around the kitchen, callin' everyone, 'Jack.'
We were dressed in white, but Duly said he only wears black
Chef said, "Not here, you won't, and don't think of talking back."

Duly mumbled as he made pasta, but I ignored his chit chat
He made a dish with ginger; called it 'Gineramacolgeepat'
The chef sniffed it before he took a bite, and then he spat
No words spoken, but their eyes locked in scornful combat

I created a dish in Duly's honor, and named it 'Egernomenality'
which translated into, "Duly is eager but has no mentality"
He took a bunch of swings at me with enthusiasm and vitality
so I had him arrested and he'll appear in court for an illegality

The whole class graduated, 'cept for Duly, that big surly fella
We made spicy Florinella pizza, loaded with extra mozzarella
but some classmates were turning the shade of yucky yella
One by one we were hospitalized, suffering from salmonella

Inaudible

Speak low 
Remain Unheard 
Still an option 
Sound horrible 
As Noise
Trickles 

Lies within its
Inaudible worth
I wont hear of it
What's said
Remains confident 
As confidential 
One word single word

Heard aloud
Expect quick
Uproared calamity 
Sloppy slightly 
Undermining 
This rooms
Crowd unprepared 

For three guns
Maximum 
Before chaos 
On tippy toes 
ing 
Dont start
An eruption 

These are not
Intellectuals
Made to be
There purpose 
Dull wittles
Idiots wrong
Place wrong 

Credentials 
Lutenants
At most 
Still though
The  sure
meaning ignorance 

Full cups laid around 
Unpredictable 
But also
ing quiet
Green boys
hard headed 
Think love 

Isnt confusion 
Understand 
As understood 
By young
Dull wittles 
Idiots
To carry over

Thoughts 
Immortal 
Make sure 
They get it tomorrow 
Walking animals 
Hunters shot
To crush
As livestock 
Before death

For told 
They die twice 
Before slude
So ing 
Whisper or
Best address 
Quietly take

Stock sliding 
the docket over
Your breath 
Stale beer
salmonella
Will end you
Quick like

These kids
Poor decision 
Being tossed 
A.slow death
Set by
weaker men
Broke agenda 

Slow Moment 
Just  this
People are
Born to die 
Going to die
Wait for
A tec is on its way

What is this
Where are we
Wrong brothel
Its 2025
I really should 
Try harder 
Out of this wall

Im a rodent 
Dying inside
A cement wall
Waiting for nothing 
is this a wall
Can I get out
From here realistically

Premium Member The Real Story

Single slippered Cinderella
Yesternight’s ball bella
Angelic voices heard a cappella
Followed by lovely clarabella

The dinner served was paella 
With a side of shredded mozzarella 
While faking a case of salmonella
Cinderella invited her fella
To follow her into the cella

Lingering aroma of citronella
With a pleasant tinge of canella
No secrets told near mimicking corella
Misplacing both shoe and umbrella



[ Clarabella = instrument much like a flute; Cella = a room in a temple; Corella = a cockatoo ]

Premium Member A Bit of Humour To Kick Start the Week

FRED THE PERV.

Kinky Fred stole knickers off the line
One summer night his haul totalled nine
His spree ended in tears
Got an extra ten years
When Judge Sue said that red pair were mine.

LARS.

A young astronaut from NASA called Lars
Blasted off from Cape Kennedy to Mars
But then there was a glitch 
When he pressed the wrong switch
Last seen heading at warp speed to the stars.

 PETE.

A young pianist from New York called Pete
Could play William Tell using his feet
But he fell of his chair
And he started to swear 
Was booed off and thrown into the street.

JOHNNY GABLE.

A mean old waiter called Johnny Gable
Saw a man choke to death on a bagel
He then shifted his body
To the side of the lobby
Said forgive me but we need the table .

O'TOOLE.

A forgetful pilot Johnny O'Toole
Was over the north sea flying to Bule
Then both engines spluttered
Under his breath muttered
Looked at his gauge and screamed no ruddy fuel.

OLD GANGSTER.

An old gangster rose from rags to riches 
Got rid of all his traitors and snitches
They'd find in their bed
A racehorses head
Or find themselves sleeping with the fishes.

THE BAKER.

An unwashed old baker from Idaho
Had filthy fingers when kneeding the dough
Folk choked on his paella
Some died from salmonella
Got closed down and ended up on skid row.

O'KEEFE.

A fella by the name of O'Keefe 
Was the long serving town's police chief 
Someone stole the mess cookies
Everyone blamed the rookies
But it turned out O'Keefe was the thief.

AMOUROUS MICHAEL.

Amourous young Michael from Mayo 
At a girls house he tried to stayo
She started to shouto
And then kicked him outo
Said she" you're not staying no wayo."

NIGERIAN POEM THIEF.

A sly poem thief from Nigeria
On the soup caused a mass hysteria
He stole soupers work
Soupers went beserk
On the run now cos he's in fear of ya.
