from the ABC set sarongs...

The other day, a complete stranger
ran up to me and said, "Let's
get married! Let's get married!"
and hopped on to my tandem.
Naturally I replied, "Miss,
we've only just met. Please -
remove yourself from my bicycle,
that seat is reserved for Daisy."
Mercifully, she obliged and wandered off,
just before Daisy appeared
carrying a shopping bag for her dad,
"Alright Ducks?" she said, "I'm knackered"
and placed her belongings into the basket,
hopped on board, buffed the chrome with her hanky,
and looked just fine, "You take it easy, my love,
I'm as fit as a fiddle to peddle the metal.
You free-wheel a starfish..." and peddled off,
hard up the hill, easy sailing all the way home.

"Alright Ducks?" she said, "I'm knackered"
and placed her belongings into the basket ..."

Classic lines, certainly;-)

Really,really enjoyed. Thanks. You've brightened my day.
