" NIGHTMARE ON HELL STREET"

 

             

 

          

 

IV'E BEEN ON HOLIDAY AGAIN FOLKS AND WHAT A NIGHTMARE IT WAS.

 

THE HEAVENS THEY OPENED EACH DAY AND EVENING SO I WAS AT A LOSS.

 

JUST HOW TO SPEND MY TIME IN MY RAINCAP WATERPROOFS AND WADERS YOU SEE.

 

I'M A SUNSHINE GODESS SO THE WEATHER FOR STARTERS REALY BUGGED ME.

 

I ARRIVED AT THE HOTEL EXCITED AND WAS GREETED WITH NEWS THAT THE LIFT.

 

WAS BROKEN DOWN AND IT ALL TURNED OUT I WAS ON THE SIXTH FLOOR WHAT A SHIFT.

 

CLIMBING SIXTY  OR MORE STAIRS TO GET TO MY HOTEL ROOM.

 

WHEN I ENTERED I'D NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT MY HEART IT DROPPED WITH A BOOM !!!!!

 

THE MANAGERESS THEN CALLED OUT WE HAVE A LIFT YOU CAN USE.

 

THIS WAS THE CLEANING SERVICE STAFF LIFT SO LOTS OF US WERN'T AMUSED.

 

FOLLOW ME SHE CRIED OUT TO EVERYONE I'LL SHOW YOU THE WAY TO GO.

 

DOWN LOTS OF LONG DARK PASSAGES BINS LADEN WITH WASHING AND SO.

 

ONE LADY SHOUTS OUT IT'S LIKE THE THIRD WORLD DIRTY WITH BINS FULL OF WASTE.

 

WELL MOTHERHEN WASN'T HAVING THIS SO I KICKED UP A RUMPUS IN HASTE.

 

WHO DO YOU THINK YOUR KIDDING I SAID THE SIGHT OF THIS JUST MAKES ME SICK.

 

YOU BETTER SEND FOR AN ENGINEER TO MEND THE BROKEN LIFT QUICK.

 

WEV'E SPENT ALL OUR MOULA ON THIS HOLIDAY AND WE ALL EXPECT MUCH MORE.

 

NOT TO BE GAZING AT DIRTY BED LINEN AND FOODSTUFFS LYING ROUND ON THE FLOOR.

 

WASTE FROM THE KITCHEN ETC IT'S DISGUSTING I'M LIVID I SAID.

 

MY HEART HAD SUNK I WAS FEELING DEPRESSED IT WAS LIKE A LUMP OF LEAD.

 

THE GROUNDS WERE FLOODED AS I PEEKED OUT I KNOW THAT IF I'D HAD MY ROD.

 

AND MADE A CATCH I'M SURE I 'D HAVE SLAPPED HER ROUND THE FACE WITH RAW COD. HE-HE !

 

APOLOGIES NOT ACCEPTED BY ME I ANSWERED YOU KNEW ALL US PEOPLE HAD BOOKED.

 

AND THIS IS THE WRONG HOTEL I SNAPPED WHEN I HAD TAKEN A LOOK.

 

AT THE BROCHURE WHICH I TOOK WITH ME HOW DARE YOU TRY TO FOB.

 

ALL THESE OLD PEOPLE WITH YOUR EXCUSES MOTHERHEN SHE WILL NOT BE ROBBED.

 

IT TURNED OUT THE HOTEL WE SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN WAS DOUBLE BOOKED AND WAS FULL.

 

SO THEY'D PUT US ALL IN THERE PARTNER ONE WHICH WAS MISERABLE DIRTY AND DULL.

 

THE FOOD WAS AS BAD JUST TERRIBLE THE BACON AND MEAT LIKE LEATHER.

 

BY THE SECOND DAY I WAS SEATHING AND AT THE END OF MY TETHER.

 

THE PORRIDGE ETC WAS COLD AS ICE THE EGGS WERE SWIMMING IN OIL.

 

THE VEGETABLES HAD NEVER SEEN A COOKER OR EVER BEEN PAR BOILED.

 

WHAT A NIGHTMARE I TELL YOU FRIENDS THEN  TO TOP IT ALL WE FOUND OUT.

 

IN THIS HOTEL NO ENTERTAINMENT SO PLENTY GUESTS SANG LULU'S "SHOUT".

 

ON ENQUIRING THE POSITION OF THE HOTEL AND WAS IT NEAR THE BAY.

 

IT WAS MILES OUT FROM THE SEASHORE AND TO WALK THERE TOO FAR NO WAY.

 

TAXI'S WERE VERY EXPENSIVE NO COURTESY BUS GOING THERE.

 

VISIONS OF ME  GAZING OUT AT THE DOWNPOUR FROM THE SIXTH FLOOR I SWEAR.

 

MY HEART IT WAS ACHING ALONG WITH ALL OTHERS THEN CAME A TEXT ON MY PHONE.

 

FROM MY SON MY BEST FRIENDS HUBBY HAD DIED SUDDEN SO I WISHED I WAS GOING HOME.

 

WELL HEARTBROKEN I JUST CRIED AND CRIED AND THOUGHT WELL I MUST NOW TRY.

 

AND MAKE THE BEST OF WHATEVERS TO BE  NOTHING WILL CHANGE IF I CRY.

 

SO IV'E WRITTEN A LETTER WELL MORE OF A BOOK FRIENDS OF COMPLAIN TO THE COMPANY TODAY.

 

AND I'M GOING TO TRY TO CONTACT THE PROGRAM "HOLIDAYS FROM HELL" LET ME SAY.

 

THIS WASN'T SOME CHEAPY HOLIDAY AND  THERE NOT RIPPING MOTHERHEN OFF.

 

SO SORRY I'M BACK WITH YOU MOANING AND GROANING BUT I THINK IV'E REASON TO SCOFF.

 

WASN'T I GLAD WHEN  ON HOME GROUND AT LAST THE WEATHER WAS FINE.

 

NOW I'M BACK ONCE AGAIN BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW OFTEN WRITING "MY SIMPLE RHYMES".
