Shu and I will be in Scotland in a few weeks. We'll be in Edinburgh, but it seemed too hard to rhyme. So, I will choose Glasgow for the next game. Let's have more than 3 submissions, please!

Come on, folks. This shouldn't be a hard one, right? How about some limericks? I have a big, fat zero number of limericks now. Mad

Are you all busy right now, or do you not like this venue for a limerick? I still don't have any submissions.

Can't you people settle on one language like we do?

Good point. Proof and arnie, you'll have to ramp it up!

I got yours, Bob. How about the rest of you?

I am happy to change the word, if people are having trouble with this one. When even Bob has trouble, I am thinking it isn't a good word.

Or maybe people are just too busy?

Yours was great! I have four so far, so one more would be great. I'll post them tomorrow if anyone else out there would like to try. It isn't too bad when you get started. I even like mine this time!

I am trying to entice Shu to submit one. He has some great rhyming words in mind.

Only just found out there was a game, because there was no notification in the previous game's thread. I will try to whip one up over the next day or two.


Regards Greg

She said, 'Lad, let's indulge in a fast go."
So we screwed on her lawn, up in Glasgow.
She said, "I didn't dream
You could spew out such cream.
Do you think it will help making grass grow?"

Greg, I'll wait for yours then. I've gotten some surprisingly good ones, given the word. I had thought it was easy when I started, but when I began writing, I realized it wasn't.

Wonderful! I'll post the poll in another thread.

Thanks, all. There are some excellent ones with a word that isn't all that easy.
