Introduction

None of these people are real - honest!

Some Limerick Moments...

An emigrant Scotsman in Sydney
Remarked on a pain in his kidney.
When asked if it hurt
He would angrily blurt
"Ah widnae complain if it didnae."

There was a young man of Botswana
Who purchased an upright piana.
In his efforts to please
He would thump on the keys
While he swung from a well-placed liana.

A naughty young lady called Murch
Used to feel she was left in the lurch
When her clients, en masse,
Would not part with their brass
Though she gave 10% to the church.

A vicar they sought to unfrock
Admitted "It came as a shock,
As a matter of fact,
To be caught in the act
Of redeeming church silver from hock."

A person who lived in Genoa
Guessed his pet snake might well be a boa.
This was fact and not fiction,
Its powers of constriction
Made it squeeze him so hard it was soa.

An old engineer of Geneva
Used to claim he'd invented the leva.
He would frequently swear
He'd some patents somewhere
Till he sadly passed on with brain feva.

An adventurous maiden called Rhona
Used to run with the bulls in Pamplona.
Friends would give her a shout
When the bulls were let out
Or just reach for their mobiles and 'phona.
