There was a young girl from Trewint
Who had a most terrible squint
'Twas not hard to think
As she gave you that wink
That the boys took the squint for a hint

Who had lost all her front baby teeth
When her mother said ,"Lottie!
Would you like a toffee?"
Little Lottie replied,"Oh yeth pleath!"

MARJORIE SYMONS

There was a young man from Four Lanes
Who was having incredible pains
To the doctor he went
Who laughed till he bent
His deaf aid, he'd plugged to the mains

A gentleman living in Cubert
Hated his name which was Hubert
His friends said,"Don't change it
Please don't rearrange it
Or we'll never know that it's you Bert"

MEG BUXTON

A well built young lady from Bude
Went bathing one day in the nude
From the lifeguard a shout
"Hey! Inflatables out!"
I think he was being quite rude

BARRY WILBER

A barnacle said to himself
"I have spent too much time on the shelf
I'll set off at a crawl
Up the length of this wall
And have an affair with a whelk"

MIKE WHITMARSH

There was an old fellow of Bude
Who ran round the beach in the nude
His wife said, of course,
She would sue for divorce
From a husband so terribly rude

A. E.AXTELL

A golfer who played at Trevose
Teed off at the tip of his toes
The ball seemed alive
Because of his drive
And it landed where nobody knows
