As we found
the station shut
The weekly
visit was put on hold,
Instead let’s
go chip and putt
‘Ambulances
all out’ we were told.
For two
pound a hundred balls
We’ll need
plenty of those,
‘Look out’
someone calls
Lucky it was
only her toes.
Stanners
brought along his bats,
Amongst all
other gear
We all
thought he looked a t**t
Bless him,
no idea.
An auctioneer’s
speech drew crowds
On the
eleventh of the fourth,
He spoke
well and laughed aloud
David Kivell
paced back and forth.
As topics
moved to sadder days
Recollections
of foot and mouth,
Not again, a
distant haze
Never, north
or south.
Question
time from Batten Fliss
When, why,
What if?
‘I suppose
it’s a bit like this’,
Mr Kivell
combed his quiff.
Laser
shooting to amuse the boys,
Not knowing
until St Teath.
Facepaint, boots,
Guns and toys,
Camouflaged
overalls, and the rest
Duchy
College, as the cool mist looms
Two mini
busses roll to West Combeshead,
‘Come on,
gather round’ Paul Ward booms
‘Yes Arron’ that’s
what I said.
Here’s the
parlour, cubicles and cows
And that’s the
clusters Jeremy,
‘So, whats
your breeding policy now
And average
number of parity’?
Many thanks
for pasty and squash
Now let’s
retire to the Swingletree,
Last few
spaces in the car park, bosh
Pork scratching’s,
lemonade and ice for three.
May
A big
beginning to May as stock judging preceded the AGM, appreciations must be
delivered to Messer Smale, Gubbin and Uglow for capturing the various animals,
explaining what to look out for and what to say when being judged. We are also
indebted to Ringo star and co. for welcoming us into their establishment to
conclude the evening of stock judging.
This year’s
AGM was in Blackpool, county chairman Ed and team rowed along the Thames in
boats of two by two, raising money with every paddle. They were joined by the
ballroom dancing team who did extremely well, see video from earlier post.
The second
visit of the month was to Cornwall Air Ambulance, this time the ambulance hadn’t
left the building, which was fortunate because Daniel Batten had a cheque to
present on behalf of the club for funds raised in the previous year whilst he
was chairman.
Girls
entertain boys, climbing in Exeter. Chris was first through the door, as we all
know now this man has no fear of heights; a man possessed, leaping from the balconies
like a ring-tailed lemur in the treetops looking for the fruit of forgiveness
as once again the climbing instructor bellows up at him from the woodland floor
bringing him back down to earth.
