Sometimes you just hear things and think “As a writer of fiction, you wouldn’t dare to make it up ... !”
I heard a “filler” on a Radio 4 News bulletin about some things people have managed to forget on Public Transport ..... as I listened, the following ditty suggested itself, and the melody was suggested by my febrile imagination! Lost Property
To the tune of “The Twelve Days of Christmas”, please! Perhaps someone else can come up with suggestions for subsequent verses??
To the tune of “The Twelve Days of Christmas”, please!Perhaps someone else can come up with suggestions for subsequent verses?? On the First bus from Clapham, I lost when I got off: a jar full of fresh bull’s sperm On the Second ...........................................................: two rubber boats, and ......... On the Third ............................................................: three dead bats, On the Fourth ...........................................................: four blow-up dolls

So that's what stuck to the seats...

Leo's prosthetic limbs has a nice flow to replace five golden rings. Where exactly is Clapham? | oops! Written by Bagheera (685 comments posted) 11th July 2006 | .... should have been "four inflatable dolls" Clapham is a junction on the rail network on the outskirts of London: the theory is that from Clapham you can go literally ANYWHERE ....... for this reason, in music, the chord built on the fourth inversion of the subtonic is often called the "Clapham Junction" chord. In the key of C major, it would be the chord Bflat7 [Bb - D - F - A] with an A as the bass note Sorry I didn't check my original posting! |
