Katanga & Cole

I have heard, about this site,
Sometimes men dress up in tights!
Well! Did you evah?
What a swell forum this is!




   John has changed,
   He's no longer wearing his socks
   And all the poets sure got a shock
   When he slipped on a summer frock.

   Now today,
   It's any dress with a lacey hem,
   'Stead of standing in the dock,
   He's working on dock-working men!

   I'm in a daze! A man in stockings!!
   Can anything be more shocking?
   But Katie knows,
   Anything Goes.



   "Good authors, too, who once knew better words, now only use four letter words writing prose. Anything Goes!"
   ...however, in my case, I feel happy in that I managed to elevate myself above the obvious rhyme for shock!

I don't know how I missed this first time round, Eric. 
I love it anyway! 
Cole Porter is one of my favourite songwriters: 
 
'They have learned that the fountain of youth 
Is a mixture of gin and vermouth.'

Rubber Boots!

'The revered Joanna' has just popped out to Sainsbury's, but before she left she gave me licence to tel you guys that I am taking advantage of her absence by slipping into my summer forck and crotch-length rubber boots (it's amazing what you can find in fishing-tackle shops - the kind assistant told me they were called 'waders', but I'm none the wiser!) 
 
I wish the sun would retire behind a cloud - I'm getting all sweaty down below . . . 
 
Waaaaaaaah! 
 
Oh Lordy - I hear Joanna's footsteps. Time to change back into my normal gear, Nazi uniform with a petticoat on top . . . 
 
Oh Ho! Don't you just love the banter?! 
 
Cheers All!
