It’s strange where the odd socks go
That’s something I would like to know
You see them here and there
Shame you can’t find a pair
Perhaps that’s something we’ll never know

An old tramp was sat on a bench

An old tramp was sat on a bench
When who should sit beside him but a pretty young wench

An old tramp was sat on a bench
When who should sit beside him but a pretty young wench
He thought my luck has changed

Or am I just deranged

When who should sit beside him but a pretty young wench

Blimey what is that God awful stench

I copied the text then pasted in to reply. But as you know it inserts a quote. So select the text in reply and delete, then paste again. It then inserts just the text.

I’m missing lots of things :joy:

I don’t think we are alone but chin up - I haven’t even got round to inserting an Emoji!

To pick up where we left off …
