I woke-up this morning with this in my mind. It's meant to be from my wife to me, and how she had to nag me to get me to up-grade to a more hygienic bathroom routine! I am a lot cleaner now...honest.

I think I can relate.
Reading this I got the image in my head of Monty Python.
Nice one.

This one made me laugh Phill,
I'm sure we all can relate to some or most of its contents. This, I thought was a very clever line.

Good stuff as always sir.

thanks lena and jamie,
i was born in 1951, post war britain, all rations and poverty. bath night was sunday for school on monday! and when my shoes got holes in the soles cardboard was cut to size to stop my feet getting wet...it didnt work. but that's how things were in those days.
i also remember in 1966, i used to wear my fathers demob suit to the dance! no wonder i never pulled.
ps and in the late 50's and early 60's, tv finished at 9.30!

" i used to wear my fathers demob suit to the dance! no wonder i never pulled."
Will we be treated to a song / poem on this in the future?.

Very cute poem Phill, but surely you couldn't have been THAT bad when your wife decided to keep you?
it might be slightly exaggerated, but looking back now i dont think i smelt that sweet! i now brush my teeth twice a day, floss and gargle, i shower every day too, but i only shave 3 times a week,(if i can get away with it). i dont know how queen victoria managed, she started a new trend of bathing once a month! previously it was an annual thing world wide i think.
hi jamier
if you'd like to put it to music...be my guest
phill
euuuu!! very nice, i hate this guy, please kick him out of your life.
well thanks, i think... actually it's written by me about me from my wife's point of view, only she's not as humorous as i am...lol. oh and by the way this guy (that i used to be) is out of my life. admittedly i do forget the toilet seat now and then. but my hygiene is much improved! so is it ok if i stay?
phill
Phil, that poem is fall-down funny. The best humor has truth in it no matter how cruel that truth may be.
I admire a man who can laugh at himself with the courage to share.
A tad of embelishment sweetens a good story as well.
Good on ya, sir.
