Limerick – by Thomas Alf

There is an Iveco Daily that came down from Uk so dearly

The owners are Marcus and Julie Tuck- Cuthbert is their IVECO Truck

It is now apparent clearly

nobody in South America knows these Daily’s for sure

But no haste Marcus has the mechanical cure

Cuthbert had his wobbles and faced the italian delaying terms

Be surprised Marcus does not play these Games

With bravour and intellect his Daily is no more a reject.

The story will draw you in its ban

Marcus an ex RAF man will show these IVECO dudes how it is done

With plastic cutting board and bananas of the cuff

That’s how you make the Daily tuff.

 

A good story my friends is no worry

the parasitic pyroclastic cones

can give you more action than a bunch of clowns.

Julie of all was playing with berries on the ear so good to hear

Advice to high and mighty but now how good to share

she is translating technical Spanish into english – oh dear!

 

Fabulous weather got all of them the better

with a ski resort helter skelter no view nor snow

Volcanoes a plenty but who cares

they were worried as hell  of a volcano bursting his belly

while the rest of earth is watching from the Telly

They read the signs and no matter they stay a bit longer with no scare

Did some math and think again this Volcano is Italic just like the Daily repair

 

Their stomachs were very hollow which added to their sorrow

They fill their bellows with bovin delux ,spuds and the crux

vin rouge from a cask.

But then both of them needed to wear a mask

to hide from volcanos and others

who would bother with two drunk like mothers

 

They contemplate to live of the land

Fishing and hunting with one hand

They caught a fish in Argentine waters

Just as the Malvinas cause was almost forgotten

Yep this time was rotten

 

Yet a boar on the fire would be excellent

Just their knowledge of what to do

Did make it prevent

It makes one without further ado

go watch the telly with an empty belly.

 

Gathering fruit and berries just like Bear Grylls

Cause he does it on telly honestly this will not really fill their belly.

Take your worry and don’t procrastinate before it gets too late

Supermarkets goods are scarce that’s why Bears story

Jumping over rocks and into water will not give them any jelly

 

Chocolate cookies are in demand

cream caramel or oat is plain and simple

This humbly will get their goat.

 

But now the time has come

To move as one to Argentine again

to fetch more fish something must decorate their dish.

Let’s not mention the Malvinas – it could become a pain
