    Reasons to be cheerful part 3

    1 2 3

    Summer, Buddy Holly, the working folly
    Good golly Miss Molly and boats
    Hammersmith Palais, the Bolshoi Ballet
    Jump back in the alley and nanny goats

    18-wheeler Scammels, Domenecker camels
    All other mammals plus equal votes
    Seeing Piccadilly, Fanny Smith and Willy
    Being rather silly, and porridge oats

    A bit of grin and bear it, a bit of come and share it
    You're welcome, we can spare it - yellow socks
    Too short to be haughty, too nutty to be naughty
    Going on 40 - no electric shocks

    The juice of the carrot, the smile of the parrot
    A little drop of claret - anything that rocks
    Elvis and Scotty, days when I ain't spotty,
    Sitting on the potty - curing smallpox

    Reasons to be cheerful part 3

    Health service glasses
    Gigolos and brasses
    round or skinny bottoms

    Take your mum to paris
    lighting up the chalice
    wee willy harris

    Bantu Stephen Biko, listening to Rico
    Harpo, Groucho, Chico

    Cheddar cheese and pickle, the Vincent motorsickle
    Slap and tickle
    Woody Allen, Dali, Dimitri and Pasquale
    balabalabala and Volare

    Something nice to study, phoning up a buddy
    Being in my nuddy
    Saying hokey-dokey, singalonga Smokey
    Coming out of chokey

    John Coltrane's soprano, Adi Celentano
    Bonar Colleano

    Will be going for the bigger place, may certainly have to chuck some machines. Currently have some retired desktops and a server sitting in my cupboard. Wonder if the charity shop could shift a server?

Probably the only life-choice I made correctly, seeing how irregular the work's been over the last 7 years or so.
