Remember any old silly verses etc you were told as a child

[cuttsie 1,093]

That's the tin that Rin tin tin poos in.....

 

Mary had a little lamb

she also had a Bear,

I've often seen her little lamb

but never seen her Bear.........

Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water,

Jill came down with half a crown but forgot all about the water.

Heres one I still remember from my old science teacher at Newfield back in the 60s.

Johnny was a clever lad, alas he is no more.for what he thought was H20 was H2S04 Funny how you remember some things.

Little Jimmy, fed up sore,

Drank some H2SO4,

But his father, an M.D.

Gave him CaCO3.

Now he's neutralised, it's true,

But he's full of CO2.

Don't forget the old tongue twisters.....

 

Around the rock the ragged rascal ran.

 

She sells sea shell on the sea shore.

 

Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled pepper,

if Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled pepper

where's the peck of pickled pepper Peter Piper picked.

 

I enjoyed that.

( Smiles and wipes chin)......

We knew a similar one,

"Little Jimmy's dead and gone

We'll see his face no more.

For what he thought was H2O

Was H2SO4."

That was my mum's mantra.

And an allied comment, she would make was "them that ask, dont get!"

 

To which i would ask, "What about those who don't ask?"

 

"Ah... Those that don't ask, don't want!"
