To bathe in the rays of

The Sun, pay your 40p

for a deckchair

on the grubby sands

of Murdoch beach.

Enjoy the sensual

page three heat.

Paddle in its murky water.

But take care:

don’t get sucked in by

the undertow

of lies and innuendo.

Hi Ed. This made me smile - especially the last four lines.

Clever!

Hi Deb,

Thanks for reading my effort. Glad you liked it. It's been rather hectic for me over the past couple of months, making it difficult to write. However, things are calming down and I hope I can start some scribbling soon. I do keep up with your excellent posts even though I haven't had much tine to comment. (I hope Bear returns soon!)

Cheers

Hey Otto,

Thanks for reading and commenting. As you can guess the rag I refer to is not one of my favourite newspapers.

Cheers

Much chuffed since this is the first thing I've written in about two months!

Thanks again

I love this. A crafty little piece and such a worthwhile dig at such a worthless rag.
