Sorry to rake over old coals, but I haven't been on BG since just after posting that 'extra' line. As Bailey had not provided a new starting line on completion of the Burke & Hare limerick, my 'extra' line was intended to start a new one. Normally I make this clear when providing a missing starter, but was in a hurry yesterday morning. Anyway, I had in mind a continuation of the Burke & Hare intercourse; something along the lines of... Mr Hare answered, quick as a flash "It's not me who's been drinking the cash. "I seem to recall "At the Gravedigger's Ball "You got smashed and then splashed out on hash!" This is but one reason that I generally repost the preceding lines when adding a new one - it cuts down on the possibility of confusion. Anyway, back to the current limerick... Did you hear about old Doctor Knox? Receiving stolen "goods" in a box? The "goods" were far too fresh But there 'in the flesh' And not too badly spoiled by the pox. <= last line; limerick completed. --------------------------------- Herbert West used 'goods' fresher by far <= new starting line  |
