Summary: Like R-Poet, I just discovered that my limerick was read out on Christmas morning, Radio 4. Someone asked me this morning if it was me, and I didn't know!




I was sitting there, watching my sheep,
trying hard just to drop off to sleep,
when a voice from the sky
told me "Never mind why,
go to Bethlehem, get in the jeep!"
