“There once lived a gardener from Leeds…” Who's garden was overgrown and full of grass and reeds. He bought a new strimmer to make things look trimmer But could now see Leeds so things were grimmer!!
Message to Al. Thank you for you edit suggestion. Before I decide, I just want to say that the initial intention was to just write the first line, assuming everyone/most people know the limerick and people thinking or remembering what comes next is supposedly what may cause a chortle or two. The one I know is: There once was a gardener from Leeds Who swallowed a packet of seeds Loads of grass, grew round his arse And now he’s covered in weeds. Should I write the original as I know it, or add your version which I think is funnier or shall I leave it as it is. If it’s worth changing to make it funnier, please let me know Al and also what others think possibly.
That’s because you are a quick witted clever little Devil our Al. I still don’t know what to Kathleen said to write ass instead of arse but I don’t know which limerick she means. I’ll see If I can find her.

She would not cut the grass- 'tho it gave her a rash-
So she always wore skirts of thick tweed.

Fair enough, Caption Author. Leave it how it is. I'd never heard it before and improvised.

Kathleen, 'ass' rhymes better if you're from north of Watford Gap. :)

I never ever imagined that those would be my first words to you our Kathleen. Can we not let this affect our friendship?
