If you're planning to speak to the British,
Be sure to avoid using Yiddish;
They'll look you askance
And there is some chance
This will make you feel terribly shitish.
--- Norm Storer P0508

The Briton has made quite a mark,
Since Noah abandoned the ark.
Now such is his lust,
Even God wouldn't trust
An Englishman whilst in the dark.

If you travel from Scratby to Oby
And you are in a hurry, then oh be
Sure your route will be
By Hemsby or Filby
Or Ormsby but never by Scroby.

In Waterford town on the dole,
At last I have reached my life's goal.
With a hundred a week,
No TD has the cheek
To ask me to work, bless their soul!

Voltaire's Norman cook named Montross
Found England an absolute loss;
"In that nation, one sees
More religions than fleas,
And yet they have only one sauce."
--- A N Wilkins P8605

In the UK, we rhyme Philistine
With the great German river, the Rhine.
So you Merkins must rough it,
Or tell me to stuff it,
If to you it ain't sounding fine.
--- Tiddy Ogg

They're a disciplined lot are the Bicester,
And the Huntsman is always called Mister.
When a girl from the Fernie
Addressed him as Ernie,
They all gathered 'round her and hissed her.
--- Anon (Bibby)

The old Roman fortress of Corbridge
Was designed with a terrible flaw which
Kept enemies out,
Of that there's no doubt.
It had a big moat and no drawbridge.
--- Janet Muggeridge

An encyclopaedia found in schools
Describes the way of fighting duels.
First it's best in the yard,
Then both say, "Be on guard!"
Then Britannica waives the rules.

A babe from American Fork
Could diddle before she could talk.
Now she's in the U.K.
And the Englishmen say,
"Wow! Can that American Fork!"

We British live on a small island,
And happy are we in our own land.
The WORLD WARS WE WON,
SHOVE THAT UP YOUR BUM.
Better late than not lending a hand.
--- Peter Morgan

Well, I'm down the old England's south coast,
About which there ain't much to boast;
Except for the heather
And gorse, and the weather,
Which for Britain, is drier than most.
--- Tiddy Ogg

Just south is the old Isle of Wight;
On clear days it's well within sight.
The winds, it is plain,
Drop there all the rain,
And leaves us comparatively bright.
--- Tiddy Ogg

Is that the young fellow from Wight,
Who gave all the girlies a fright,
By claiming his dong
Was as fat and as long
As the famous St Catherine's light.

There was a young lady of Penge,
Politically out on the fringe.
She was given some fluid
By a randy old Druid,
And now she's the toast of Stonehenge.
--- Bill Wall

On Salisbury Plain vandals impinged
And last year's Winter Solstice was dimmed
By malevolent spawn,
Dimming the light of dawn,
Leaving modern day Druids unhEnged.
--- Loren Fitzhugh P0204

Out at Stonehenge we saw the big rocks
And one of them there even talks.
If you ask it politely,
He'll tell you that nightly
The Druids dance 'round in their socks.
--- Graham

When the wind comes from the south,
Over the shield-bearing Saxons stout,
It drives waves up Skiddy,
Makes high Calad Nit giddy,
Pounding the grey-green of Shannon's mouth.
--- Rumann Mac Colmain P0107

The sweet little girlies of Surrey
Are anyone's after a curry;
But girlies from Berks (Berkshire)
Prefer toffee-nosed jerks
To be up 'em and out in a hurry.
--- Peter Wilkins

The names all appear old and and quaint,
Though confusion's a common complaint.
There's counties named Essex,
And Sussex and Wessex,
But a county named Nussex, there ain't.
--- Anon

Asheville is cunning. It would
Run trucks through my nice neighborhood,
To build them an armory
With arms, from a farmery
And a park, but I don't think they should.
--- Lian na Beag

The absolute essence of Britishness?
A resolute absence of skittishness.
(They ruled all the waves
And never were slaves.)
And an upper class known for its twittishness.
--- Rory Ewins

From West Country Dorset, I be;
'Tis very perceptive of thee;
But phrases like, "Well
I be buggered", Michelle,
Be a-comin' from 'eifers, not me.

The sea-wise people of Weybourne
Can tell what the state of the ebb 'n'
Flow of the tide is
By checking how wide is
The crafty old sea-spiders webbin'.

Your limerick did sadly evoke
Bad memories of old Basingstoke.
I cornered a lass
Who showed me her ass,
But found out that the lass was a bloke!
--- SFA

I quite understand your objection
To Basigstoke tarts; my direction
Is out of such towns,
And on to the downs,
If wooly twat's your prediliction
--- SFA

I ain't pulled the wool since my niece
Bent over and parted her fleece.
She saw my carbuncle
And quickly yelled "Uncle!"
Which hastened my manhood's decease...

Some people think British food stinks,
But I'll have to try it, methinks.
Besides, I have learned
Where strange food is concerned,
I'll eat anything with enough drinks.

A strapping young builder from Wymondham
Was proud of his massive pudendum.
Its gargantuan size
Easily won him first prize
In a big nationwide referendum.

Ah, yes! I will crap in the grass,
And piss in each creek that I pass.
And then to be cute,
Each night I pollute
The cunt of a clean British lass.
--- Anon

Excuse me, but this isn't right;
Us people of York are not tight!
And when troubles come,
'Ay Up!' and 'By gum!'
Will silence all mili-try might.
--- Anon

When traveling, I always try
Local foods, and some bring a sigh;
Yorkshire pudding can cause
Terminal pause,
And tears are brought to the eye.
--- Mike Patterson A3

There was a young man from Alnwick,
Who picked up a fork, looking manic,
Said, "I'll ask them in Warkworth
Just how much this forks worth,"
And everyone started to panic.
--- Janet Muggeridge

This is file jlm

Of Daphne from Ashton-ON-Lyne,
I must say that she's mighty fine,
Men from Manchester
And even from Chester,
Pine for her part that's feline.
--- Anon

Been working in dismally gritty
And gloom-laden Birmingham City,
Where most of the women
Are terribly grim 'n'
The rest are decidedly shitty.
--- Peter Wilkins

But soon I'll be off and away
To Edinburgh City and pray
That hundreds of lasses
With cute little asses
Will teasingly lead me astray.
--- Peter Wilkins

Oh what a sad piteous verse!
You need, my boy, a big strapping nurse.
But Glasgow has few,
And I hear from McGrew,
That Edinburgh City is worse.
--- Tiddy Ogg

No nurses in Edinburgh City?
No comforting matronly titty?
No nipples, no teats
In those desolate streets?
No surprise?, then a piteous ditty.
--- Peter Wilkins

Some things I just can't resist;
I love limeys, I truly insist.
My mother, God rest her,
Was born in Manchester;
Other blots on my past, I won't list.
--- John Miller

I'm off to the City of Titties;
That's Bristol, the Mecca of cities,
Where girlies wear vests
Which cling to their chests,
And charge nowt for a poke of their kitties.
--- Anon

I have heard that the girls out in Bucks (Buckinghamshire)
When they're dancing, do waddle like ducks.
But their organ down south
Is as good as a mouth;
Well at least I've been told that it sucks.
--- Peter Wilkins

The busy square mile of the city
Of London's not specially pretty,
But well worth a visit
For spotting exquisite
Young ladies with bountiful titty.
--- Peter Wilkins

In London I'd throw in the tower
Those ladies I'd want in my power.
Unlike Henry Eighth said,
I'd yell "On with the head!"
And generate quite a nice shower.
--- Ward Hardman

In Cringleford there is a hitch
And their name they may now have to ditch.
To lie is rewardless;
Their village is fordless,
And really should be Cringlebridge.
--- Anon

On the Thames in Eton, I note
A cafe, a "lo-fat", afloat;
And near by, a banner
Said "Dress Roman Manner!"
So I hid in my toga, a goat.
--- David Miller

While digging his garden in Garboldisham,
A man found some gems, so he polished 'em.
Sadly he garbled some,
And then he marbled some,
And finally gave up and abolished 'em.

There was an old man of Ghent,
Who used to sleep in a tent,
The tent was so small,
He could not sleep at all
And he forgot what the word sleep meant.

A postman in Leeds, Sam MacLean,
Oft talks of the boxes he's seen,
While walking his beat,
But yet has to meet
A one that ain't festering green.
--- Anon

"Not Leeds!" I protested in vain,
When told I must visit again;
It's not only grim,
It lacks quality quim,
And it always chucks buckets of rain.
--- Anon

The trouble with Leeds is the spotty
Unkempt and unsavoury totty;
The most one can say,
On a very good day,
Is that camels are rather less grotty.
--- Peter Wilkins

The hookers of Leeds are a fright;
Asked one I encountered last night.
"A handjob for free
In the gents while you pee?"
"Not likely!" I said, and took flight.
--- Anon

Back home now I'm kind of like working
'Twixt patches of snoozing and lurking,
Composing these verses
And ogling nurses;
Pretending, in fact, I'm not shirking.
--- Anon

Oh bugger this work I be doin';
Yon nurses I'd rather be wooin'.
If not, then Big Bertha
I guess may be worth a
Wee visit for billin' and cooin'.
--- Anon

In Bradford the rainfall is worse;
I done caught a dose from a nurse.
Now back here in Penge,
I'm potting revenge,
Too gruesome to tell in this verse.
--- Anon

So much for Big Bertha - though willing
She told me her fee was a shilling.
It seems that she too
Won't consider a woo
Or a cooing or two before billing.
--- Anon

'Twas in London I lived as a lad;
As a town it was not all that bad.
Then out to the styx,
We moved, when I'm Six;
Now, I barely miss it a tad.

A young lady named Minny Cooper
Had learned how to swear like a trooper!
On her way home one night,
And not feeling bright,
She got lost in a London pea-souper!

It's darkly Satanic and grim,
Forbiddingly gloomy and dim.
It's Manchester city;
And equally gritty
Is Manchester's quota of quim.
--- Peter Wilkins

Maybe a verse here and there
Will occur to me out of thin air,
So I'll scribble it down
While commuting to town,
Though at work, I have no time to spare.
--- Peter Wilkins

I earn a living in London's old city;
I don't take the car, it's too shitty;
I travel by train.
It seems less of a strain,
But it's dirty and grimy and gritty.
--- Peter Wilkins

I'm sorry to have such a moan,
But I've sat here this week on my own,
Without dreaming up verses;
I'm tired and the curse is
I can't even get me a bone!
--- Peter Wilkins

I've heard of this city of Kent
But confess that I never went.
So I guess it's unfair
Since I never went there,
To hope that I never get sent.
--- Anon

In Nottingham, heaps of old slags
Are offering "quality" shags,
Which frankly are crap;
For the catching of clap,
And the crabs are but some of the snags.

Should a Brit do offense 'gainst the Crown,
The entire legal system comes down
On the sad miscreant,
Who is tried, sentenced, sent
To drive taxicabs in London Town.

Toastmasters are good at a speech.
They spray and they dribble and preach.
But give them some bread
And they'll scratch at their head
And burn it like Brits on the beach!

How sad for to see Baltimore!
Where the Irish are now to the fore.
God be with the old days
And our dear British ways --
But, alas and alack, they're no more!
--- Linda Marsh Coll

In the Gaeltacht of sweet Ballingearry,
Where the Gaels of both sexes are airy,
If you want to make love,
It's OK from Above.
If you do it through Irish -- be wary!
--- Linda Marsh Coll
