whole of their cash in his care!
A cheque for seven pounds,he sold for nine, to
The Thing-Um-A-Jig.
He would, and he did,laugh at MP's,
not returning their Wonga,
with an impudent wag of his head.
And he once went a walk
hand in paw with a Panda.
Just to keep up its spirits, he said.
The mono Panda,alone of its class, desired amongst
others a Scot, Panda Lass.
To wit and to woo in an Edina Glade.
And the Bellman perplexed and distressed
Said he hoped,at least when the wind
blew due East
that the ship would not travel due West!
But the danger was past,they had landed at last
with their boxes, portmanteaus and bags.
Yet at first sight,the crew were not pleased with the view,
which consisted of chasms and Salisbury Crags.
But two of the crew were very much happy,
up the mast on the nest the semimonkey stared down
and held up his,' Okay' thumb.
He smiled at the Panda, the Panda smiled back.
They landed,t'was morning,the Banker was yawning.
They accosted the Banker and desired him to meet
with them on the foreshore at Granton ,no less
They danced a jig and munched on a fig.
Please Sir Banker, our money return,If we
remember correctly the amount was a twenty.
The Lord Banker replied with a sword by his side
Please think of a number, any number will do,
add another,the amount's up to you, selfwish a triple dish of thrice,
undo all that men and Panda's contrive ,the answer
my friends is a five,or in your case dear Panda the cartoon shows four!
The total is nine.
It has been a long voyage
and my wife,she is waiting
for me and whats mine
Farewell then,
Goodbye, or not,as the case may be
Ta Ta Cheerio,you've had your lot ,
just don't ask, what it was, that wot I got!
With abject apologies to the memory of ,
LEWIS CARROLL. Sorry
