Love that one Karen. But Dean, what brilliant stuff!!!
I've been warned that if I read them aloud again I shall be
banished to the back yard. At least my children were
impressed with my ability to get round them and I
scared off a door to door salesman by reading them to
him as he tried to concentrate on his sales pitch.

I just remembered the old ' Peter Piper' that may be
new to some.

The first line is delivered as a flat statement.
The second as a wide eyed doubtful questioning on a
higher pitch and the third, faster and scornfully.

[Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.

Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers?

If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers
where's the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked?]

The one thing my lips and
tongue can't get off is that
blue bra. /0^0\
