Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)
There was a old fellow called Igor
Who was stooped but strong as a Tigor
With a mate called Frank, they smoked and they drank
Until they drowned in a barrel of cidor.
Ya gotta put on your posh accent for that one.
No I don’t know any Igor meself, come to think of it I don’t know of any Percy’s either, except Shelley and that cruel prison warder in ‘The Green Mile’
Is Percival the full name for a Percy? thank God me mother never called me that.
There was an English actor I never liked called Lance Percival, how he got away with it I'll never know, the wife didn’t like him either, she used to refer to him as “Oh no! here’s that Lance Persecute again”
Mary Shelley, Percy, and Byron all hung around together, I remember reading a book many years ago about Byron, a bit of a devil for the ladies was he, young and old didn't matter to him.
I'm in the process of tuning in my new satellite box, it does everything for you, internet an all, all it's short of doing is pouring the port and lighting your fags. I am so pleased with it, in fact I'm overwhelmed, that's progress for you lads, 349 channels and still nothing on.
