Puddings and Pumpkins
What is the point of
Christmas Puddings
with a sell-by date of
the third of November
Are the marketing men
so politically correct
that they don’t want to
offend pumpkins
in September?
Standing Out from the Crowd
I’m like a banana
on a canary farm –
conspicuous by my
silence
Crossed Wires at the Barbers
“Anything for the weekend Sir?”
the smiling barber said
“Yes, a five litre can of creosote
to waterproof the shed”
Coming and Going
There goes
a TOYOTA
and here is
ATOYOT a
in reverse!
Short Story
I’ve just written a novel
but you probably missed it
amongst the other
thirteen words
