THOUGH I THINK I'LL MANAGE WITHOUT TONIGHT WE'LL BE THE BEST TWO SWINGERS IN TOWN. HE-HE.

 

  CONTINUED IN NEXT POSTING GRRRRR.

"THE GHOST TRAIN"

         

WHAT IS IT ABOUT THE GHOST TRAIN MOST KIDS REQUEST TO GO ON.

I USED TO HEAR MINE WITTER OH!  PLEASE MUM WALKING THE PROM.

 

NO YOU WON'T LIKE THAT RIDE AT  ALL IT'S DARK AND SCARY IN THERE.

 

BUT YET THEY STILL INSISTED AND PESTERED ME ESPECIALLY THE ELDEST PAIR.

 

COME ON THEN IF YOUR GOING TO INSIST THEN  WE WOULD CLIMB UP ON THE STAND.

 

WAIT IN THE QUEUE AND PAY FOR OUR TICKETS AS I HELD THERE TINY HAND.

 

OUT OF THE DARK TUNNEL CAME THE RUMBLE OF THE WHEELS ON THE CAR FOR US.

 

EAGERLY THEY WOULD JUMP INSIDE AND SIT  READY  WITHOUT ANY FUSS.

 

THE TRAIN WOULD FILL UP WITH CHILDREN AND MUMS ALL EXCITED THEN  WE WERE OFF.

 

AS THEY CLUTCHED THERE BAGS OF CRISPS OR SWEETS WHICH THEY HAD BOUGHT TO SCOFF.

 

RUMBLE RUMBLE RUMBLE ROUND THE TRACK THE CAR  WOULD SWAY.

 

WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN SHRIEKS AND SCREAMS AND UNDER MY BREATH I WOULD SAY.

 

OH DEAR I DON'T THINK THEY'LL LIKE THIS AT ALL GROTESQUE THINGS FILL THE AIR.

 

SPOOKS AND ALSORTS DANGLING DOWN LARGE SPIDERS ON WEBS EVERYWHERE .

 

HELP THERES A HORRIBLE SKELETONS HAND ON MY HEAD GET IT OFF THE KIDS  SHOUT.

 

SCREAMING  AND CARRYING ON AND ANOTHER CHILD CRYING I WANT TO GET OUT.

 

I WOULD BE LAUGHING AND THINKING YOU'LL LISTEN TO ADVISE FROM MUM.

 

I TOLD YOU THAT YOU WOULDN'T LIKE IT AND THAT THIS RIDE IT WASN'T  MUCH FUN.

 

THEN A VERY LARGE COBWEB WOULD FALL DOWN  AND LOOSLY DRAPE  YOUR FACE.

 

MORE SCREAMS AND CRYING AS ROUND THE CORNER MORE GORE LIT UP IN SHOWCASE.

 

CREAKING SECRET DOORS WOULD OPEN  GORY  FACES ALL COVERED IN BLOOD.

 

MAKING THE KIDS SCREAM LOUDER GHOULS CLENCHING A STAKE MADE OF WOOD.

 

WHOOOOO'S AND HOWLS AND EIRIE NOISES ECHOING  OUT FROM ALL SIDES .

 

MY TWO BOYS CLINGING ONTO  ME TIGHTLY CRYING  I DON'T LIKE THIS  HORRIBLE RIDE. HE-HE.

 

WHEN IS IT GOING TO STOP MUM I WANT TO GET OFF CAN YOU HEAR.

 

YES I CAN HEAR YOU  BUT YOU'LL HAVE TO WAIT AND  BOTH OF THEM FROZEN WITH FEAR.

 

THEN A COFFIN DROPS DOWN WITH A CORPSE SUSPENDED AND EVEN SCARES ME TO DEATH.

 

NEVER MIND THE CHILDREN I WAS FRIGHTENED  IT ALMOST TOOK MY LAST BREATH.   HE-HE.

 

BOO- HOO!! BOO- HOO!!!  IS ALL I CAN HEAR NOW FROM EVERY CAR ON THE TRACK.

 

CHILDRENS VOICES HOLLOWING OUT HELP MUM I WANT TO GO BACK .

 

SO WHAT IS IT ABOUT THE GHOST TRAIN THAT WHEN SMALL CHILDREN THEY DO SEE.

 

INSISTING THEY WANT TO TAKE A RIDE  IT'S GOT TO BE CURIOSITY.

 

AFTER TWO MINUTES ON THE RIDE LIGHT APPEARS AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL AND TRACK .

 

THROUGH TWO CLANGING HEAVY RUBBER DOORS THE KIDS ARE SO HAPPY THERE BACK .

 

THERES MORE CRYING EYES THAN RAINDROPS FROM HEAVEN DRIPPING ON THIS GHOST TRAIN.

 

THE JOURNEY HAS BEEN A NIGHTMARE BUT NOT A JOURNEY IN VAIN.

 

NOW THEN DO YOU BELIEVE YOUR MUM I WOULD SAY TO THEM AS WE'D  DEPART.

 

I WILL NEXT TIME MY CHILDREN WOULD SAY I PROMISE AND CROSS MY HEART.. HE-HE.

 

SO WE HAVE TO BE CRUEL TO BE KIND ON OCCASIONS  HAV'NT WE FRIENDS SOMETIME.

 

HAS THIS JOGGED YOUR MEMORY OF YOUR  GHOST TRAIN RIDE HERE IN " MY SIMPLE RHYME "

 

 

                                 

                                                        HE-HE !!

 

                                                                                 

 

ELEPHANTS NEVER FORGET         HE-HE HE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  kath

"I WAS TAGGED"

 

 

 

               

 

           

    

 

IV'E BEEN TAGGED BY MARIE FOLKS AND I NEVER EVER DO.

 

MEMES IN MY JOURNAL BUT I'LL OBLIGE THIS TIME FOR YOU.

 

SHE ASKS ME TO NAME FOUR THINGS OF MY FAVOURITES SO HERE GOES.

 

IT REALY HAD ME THINKING AND KEPT  ME ON MY TOES .

 

1.

 

THE FIRST ONE WAS FOUR MOVIES I'D WATCH AGAIN SO RIGHT .

 

MY FIRST CHOICE IS THE RAILWAY CHILDREN THIS WAS A DELIGHT.

 

 

 

MY CHILDREN TOO THEY LOVED THIS FILM WHENEVER ON TV .

 

THEY WOULD GATHER ROUND AND THE LITTLE ONE TOO SAT UPON MY KNEE.

 

MY SECOND CHOICE WOULD HAVE TO BE BRIDGE OVER THE RIVER KWAI.

 

 

 

I LOVED THIS FILM FOR WHAT REASON I CANNOT TELL YOU WHY.

 

I HAVE WATCHED IT MANY TIMES MY FRIENDS AND I WILL NEVER BORE.

 

IT'S A CLASSIC FILM IN MY EYES AND I COULD STILL WATCH MORE.

 

THE THIRD I CHOOSE IS DIRTY DANCING SOMETHING WITH  A SWING.

 

WHEN YOUNGER  I LOVED  PATRIC SWAYZE AT THIS TIME  HE DID BRING.

 

 

       

 

 

SWOONS TO ALL THE YOUNG GIRLS WIGGLING HIS SEXY HIPS.

 

ME TOO BACK IN THEM DAYS WHEN I'D  HAD TOO MANY  SIPS.

 HE-HE.

 

FOURTH HAS TO BE THE VIKINGS AND THIS THE REASON WHY .

 

 

  

ANOTHER HEART THROB OF MINE KIRK DOUGLAS WHAT A GUY.

 

ALONGSIDE TONY CURTIS AND THE LOVELY JANET LEIGH.

 

THIS FILM WILL  PLEASE JUST  EVERYONE ESPECIALLY MOTHERHEN ME.

 

2,

 

THE NEXT FOUR ARE TV SHOWS THAT I WATCH WHEN I CAN.

 

WELL THIS ONES HARD AS I AM NOT A VERY BIG TELLY FAN.

 

I TRY TO WATCH THE ICE DANCING THAT WOULD BE MY FIRST

 

ALL THE STARS DO REALY WELL WITH THERE TWISTING AND TWIRLS.

 

I ALSO LIKE TO WATCH THE PROGRAM CALLED ANTIQUES ROAD SHOW.

 

I'M SURE IF IT CAME TO MY TOWN THEN OFF THERE  I WOULD GO.

 

THE EXPERTS THEY GIVE VALUATIONS ON YOUR GOODS PLACED THERE.

 

MANY A SHOCK DO PEOPLE GET WHEN TOLD THE VALUE STARE.

 

THE HOLIDAY DESTINATION PROGRAMS I ALSO LIKE TO SEE.

 

IF ANY OF THEM TAKE MY FANCY FOR SUMMERTIME HE-HE.

 

I LOVE THE ONE CALLED PLACE IN THE SUN THATS QUITE POPULAR.

 

BE IT OVER THE OCEAN THEY TAKE ME OR IN ENGLAND HERE NOT FAR.

 

LAST OF ALL I LOVE  TO WATCH THE TALENT OF   X FACTOR.

 

WITH SIMON COWEL AND ALL THE FUNNY OTHER CARACTURES.

 

WHO COME PRETENDING THEY CAN SING BOY IT IS A LAUGH.

 

WELL YES YOUV'E GUESSED  THATS SUITS ME GOOD OLD LAUGHING KATH.

 

3.

 

FOUR FAVOURITE THINGS TO EAT MARIE DID ASK ME IN HER MEME.

 

WELL LET ME TELL YOU THERES NOT MUCH I DO NOT LIKE IF ANY.   HE-HE.

 

FIRST I HAVE TO SAY I LOVE LAMB DINNERS OH SO MUCH.

 

THEY DEFINITELY ARE MY FAVOUTIRE BUT KEEP ME OUT OF TOUCH.

 

FROM BEING SLIM AND SLENDER BUT NOT TO WORRY NOW.

 

I EAT SMALL PORTIONS SO I DON'T TURN INTO A  FAT SOW .   HE-HE.

 

NEXT ON MY LIST WOULD HAVE TO BE ANOTHER WEIGHT GAIN TOAST.

 

I AM FOREVER  EATING THIS  IT SIMPLY IS THE MOST .

 

DELICIOUS THING TO ME WITH  BEST BUTTER PILED ON TOP.

 

OR MARMALADE WITH A NICE CUP OF TEA TO SIP WITH IT RED HOT.

 

I ALSO LOVE LASAGNE I HAVE TO EAT EACH WEEK.

 

NOT MADE MYSELF BUT IN A CAFE HERE ACROSS THE STREET.

 

IT'S SUCH A LOVELY MEAL THERE  AND THE LASAGNE 'S BEST IV'E HAD.

 

I HAVN'T BEEN THERE YET WHERE I HAVE EATEN ANYTHING BAD.

 

LAST BUT NOT LEAST I CHOOSE FOR THIS ONE SOMETHING NICE AND SWEET.

 

THOUGH NOT A BIG FAN OF SWEET THINGS THESE I LIKE TO EAT.

 

THERE FRANZIPANS I LOVE THE LARGE ROUND LOVELY  TART.

 

MARZIPAN I COULD EAT FOREVER I LOVE IT WITH ALL MY HEART .

 

4.

 

FOUR PLACES I WOULD RATHER BE WELL LET ME THINK NOW PLEASE.

 

FIRST SAT IN A GLOURIOUS GARDEN WITH MY CHILDREN ON MY KNEES.

 

WAY BACK WHEN THEY WERE SMALL IS JUST WHAT I WOULD LOVE.

 

SO IBEST CHOOSE ANOTHER BECAUSE I KNOW THIS CARN'T BE HEAVENS ABOVE.

 

SECOND CHOICE WOULD BE TO LIVE AROUND MY FAMILY .

 

SO I COULD CALL AND SEE THEM WHENEVER THE FANCY TOOK ME.

 

PLAYING WITH MY GRANDCHILDREN  AT GAMES AND THINGS AS WELL.

 

NOT TO WORRY THEY ARE ALL HEALTHY AND ALL ARE LOOKING SWELL.

 

MY THIRD I THINK WOULD BE TO HAVE A DREAM OF MINE COME TRUE.

 

TO BUILD MY OWN LITTLE DWELLING PLACE JUST BIG ENOUGH FOR TWO.

 

OUT THERE IN THE COUNTRY   SOMEWHERE TRANQUIL AND SERENE.

 

MAYBE A PLACE I HAVE YET TO FIND SOMEWHERE I HAVN'T BEEN.

 

FOURTH WOULD BE TO HAVE  A GATHERING OF EVERY J/LAND MEMBER I KNOW. .

 

TO ALL MEET UP AND HAVE A BALL WOULDN'T THAT BE SOMETHING SO.

 

WE COULD WHINE AND WITTER ALL DAY LONG TO OUR HEARTS CONTENT.

 

ABOUT ALL OUR LOVELY COMMENTS ONE ANOTHER WE HAVE SENT.  HE-HE.

 

5.

 

FOUR THINGS I LOOK FORWARD TO THIS YEAR I'VE TO  TELL YOU NOW .

 

I DON'T THINK THAT  I HAVE MUCH  ON MY CALENDER SOMEHOW.

 

I KNOW I INTEND TO LOOK AROUND AND SEE IF I CAN FIND.

 

SOMEWHERE ELSE I WANT TO LIVE WELL THATS BEEN ON MY MIND.

 

ANOTHER ONE WOULD HAVE TO BE TO VISIT BACK HOME MORE.

 

ON THE BUS NOT BY CAR AS TRAVELLING I ADORE.

 

THE BUS GOES ON A SCENIC ROUTE AND QUITE A NICE LONG RIDE.

 

DURING SUMMER MONTHS WHEN THE SUNS SHINING OUTSIDE.

 

LAST WOULD BE TO HOPEFULLY LOSE WEIGHT SO I CAN THEN.

 

WALK FASTER AND NOT WADDLE ROUND LIKE A MOTHERHEN.   HE-HE.

 

PAY MORE ATTENTION TO MYSELF INSTEAD OF PLEASING OTHERS.

 

AS I DON'T THINK WE DO THIS ENOUGH AT ALL DO WE US MOTHERS.

 

6.

 

THE LAST ONE WAS TO TAG FOUR MORE BUT I AM SAYING NO.

 

IF YOU FANCY DOING THIS THEN GO AHEAD AND THERE YOU GO.

 

PUT ONE IN YOUR JOURNAL FOR OTHERS THERE TO READ.

 

I HOPE YOU DO AND I HOPE YOU ALL FIND IT EASY AND SUCCEED.

 

I FOUND IT QUITE HARD WORK WHEN I AM FEELING KINDA LOW..

 

BUT MARIE KNOWS I WOULDN'T LET HER DOWN AND I WOULD HAVE A GO. 

 

SO I HOPE YOU ENJOY MY ANSWERS HERE IV'E GIVEN IT A GO THIS TIME.

 

MOTHERHENS MEME MARIE TAGGED  ME TO DO HERE IN "MY SIMPLE RHYME"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"IS FEBRUARY GOING TO BE THE SAME"

 

                              

                 

            

           Thanx to Winivere for this great graphic she made for  me.                                 

 

 

WELL THIS YEAR FOR ME HASN'T SET OFF TOO GOOD  EVERY WEEK THERES SOMETHING GONE WRONG..

 

FIRST THOSE COWBOY  BUILDERS BANGING MY WINDOWS AND DROPPING DUST ON.

 

ALL MY  NEW STAIRCASE CARPET  PLASTER DUST GRIME EVERYWHERE.

 

ALSORTS OF DEBRI THEY DROPPED UP AND DOWN FROM THE EMPTY FLAT UP THERE.

 

THEN CAME MY ELECTIC TRIP SWITCH IT DIDN'T KNOW WHEN TO STAY ON.

 

EVERYTIME I USED MY NEW COOKER TO BAKE THE ELECTRIC WAS GONE.

 

I WAITED FOR AN ELECTRICIAN AND WAS UNABLE TO COOK.

 

WAITED SO LONG I THOUGHT HE MUST HAVE TAKEN HIS FLIPPING HOOK .

 

SO FOR TWO WEEKS WITHOUT A HOT MEAL FOLKS AS I DON'T LIKE MICROWAVES.

 

REALY WAS SO ANNOYING TO ME I WENT INTO LOTS OF RAVES.

 

THEN BELIEVE IT OR NOT FRIENDS OTHER BAD THINGS HAVE ALSO  HAPPENED TOO.

 

SOME DAYS I HAVN'T  KNOWN WHERE TO TURN OR REALY WHAT TO DO..

 

THIS LITTLE FLAT I HAVE BY THE SEASIDE IT'S  ALL GOT TOO MUCH FOR ME.

 

I BELIEVE BROUGHT MY DEPRESSION BACK  ON NOTHINGS GONE  RIGHT YOU SEE.

 

WELL I GOT UP THIS SATURDAY MORNING AND THE WEATHER WAS BITTERLY  COLD.

 

MY CENTRAL HEATING WOULDN'T WORK THEN AND THE BOILER IS NOT VERY OLD.

 

IT'S QUITE A NEW ONE ABOUT EIGHTEEN MONTHS LIVID STOOD LIKE FROZEN ICE.

 

MADE ME REALISE WE TAKE FOR GRANTED THE HEAT WHICH WE HAVE IT'S SO NICE.

 

IN THIS BITTER FREEZING  WEATHER I TRIED MY BEST TO GET THE BOILER TO FIRE.

 

BUT NO IT WAS HAVING NOTHING SO NO HOT WATER TO WASH MY SPARE TYRE.

                                                                                                      (MINE NOT THE CARS ) HE-HE.

 

I HAD AN EMERGENCY NUMBER TO RING TURNED  OUT  WAS AN ANSWER PHONE.

 

WHATS THE POINT OF THAT MY FRIENDS IN EMERGENCIES KNOWONE AT HOME .

 

SO THIS WEEKEND HAS NOT BEEN A PLEASANT ONE I HAVE WRAPPED UP IN LOTS TO KEEP WARM.

 

THERE LONG ENOUGH DAYS WITHOUT BEING COLD  WHEN I'M UP AT THE CRACK OF DAWN.

 

YES I DO HAVE SOME ELECTRIC HEATERS BUT THEY ARE EXPENSIVE TO RUN.

 

AND MY LAST ELECTRICTY BILL WAS ENORMOUS SO JANUARY HASN'T BEEN MUCH  FUN.

 

THE WASHER IT BOILS IT'S BACKSIDE OFF EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK.

 

AND MY COOKERS FOREVER ON THE BOIL AND COMPUTER FOR ME TO PEEK.

 

I HAVE LOTS OF TABLE LAMPS WHICH I LIGHT UP AS THE DAYS HAVE BEEN SO DARK TOO.

 

ALL THESE GADGETS TAKE MONEY TO RUN THEM BUT HELP  ME FROM FEELING BLUE.

 

WELL NOW THE GAS BOILERS PLAYING IT'S TRICKS AND IT STARTED ON SATURDAY.

 

I AM HOPING AND PRAYING THAT FEBRUARY ISN'T GOING TO GO THE SAME WAY.

 

I FEEL AS THOUGH I HAVE KILLED A ROBIN NO LUCK AT ALL JUST OF LATE.

 

YOU ALL KNOW THAT LAUGHING KATH DOESN'T LIKE TO BE MISERABLE IT'S SOMETHING I HATE.

 

THERES MANY THINGS ELSE THAT HAVE HAPPENED FAR TOO MANY TO MENTION IN HERE.

 

SO I'M ASKING FOR PRAYERS FOR THE FIRST TIME MY FRIENDS AS I KNOW YOU ARE ALL SO DEAR.

 

THEN MAYBE THINGS MIGHT TAKE A TURN AND I CAN START LAUGHING AGAIN.

 

INSTEAD OF ME HAVING TO WRITE MISERABLE THINGS AS FOR  ME THIS  IS SUCH A PAIN.

 

I AM SAT HERE NOW IN MY DRESSING GOWN WRITING THIS RHYME TO  POST.

 

WITH A HOT CUP OF CHOCOLATE AND THREE OR FOUR SLICES OF LOVELY HOT BUTTERED TOAST.

 HE-HE.

 

I BINGE WHEN I AM SO MISERABLE SO MY DIET HAS GONE WITH THE WIND .

 

WHICH I SAID I WOULD START IN JANUARY ALL THE SLIMMING FOODS I HAVE BINNED.

 

HE-HE.

 

WELL I CANNOT KEEP WARM ON SALADS AND FRUIT  I NEED SOMETHING GOOD IN MY TUM.

 

ANYWAY I CARN'T BE BOTHERED NOW IV'E LOST INTEREST IT'S  ALRIGHT FOR SOME.

 

SO WISH ME LUCK WILL YOU PLEASE J/LAND AND LETS HOPE THINGS  PICK UP SOON.

 

OR I MIGHT BE MOVING OUT ONE NIGHT BY THE LIGHT OF THE SILVERY MOON .  HE-HE.

 

LOOKING FOR SOMEWHERE ELSE AS THIS PLACE DOESN'T SEEM LUCKY FOR ME.

 

NOTHINGS GONE RIGHT SINCE I MOVED TO THE COAST AND TO LIVE HERE BY THE SEA.

 

I KNOW I MAKE YOU ALL LAUGH AT TIMES AND  I LOVE TO DO THAT EVEN SO.

 

WHEN TIMES ARE BAD AND NOTHING IS RIGHT AND THINGS THEY DON'T SEEM TO GO.

 

SMOOTHLY FOR ME I'M A FIGHTER BUT I FEEL OF LATE ALLS TOO MUCH.

 

IT GETS TO THE HEART OF ANYONE WHEN EVERYTHING  GOES WRONG AS SUCH.

 

OH WELL I WILL SIT AND WAIT FOR THE GAS MAN AND SEE WHAT HE HAS TO SAY.

 

I HOPE I DON'T HAVE TO WAIT FOR PARTS FOR THE BOILER ANOTHER DAY.

 

MY WASHING IS PILING UP SKY HIGH AND I DO THIS DAILY YOU SEE.

 

I ALSO CARN'T COPE WITHOUT A BATH OR A SHOWER WITH MERMAN HE-HE.

 

FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO DON'T LNOW MERMAN HE'S A GRAPHIC WHICH RUSS DREW FOR ME.

 

AS I LOVE MERMAIDS HE THOUGHT A MERMAN WOULD BE MORE APPROPRIATE HE-HE.

 

IT IS BITTERLY COLD AND I'M FROZEN THROUGH HYPERTHYROIDISM I SUFFER WITH.

 

WITHOUT ANY  HEATING I'M SHIVERING BADLY AND I FEEL I AM READY TO GIVE.

 

UP ON MYSELF FRIENDS AT THIS TIME SO TRY  SAY A PRAYER FOR ME PLEASE.

 

THAT ALL THESE THINGS WHICH  KEEP HAPPENING TO ME WILL SOON GO AWAY AND EASE.

 

I HAVE HAD A BARROW LOAD JUST LATELY NOT  MENTIONING ALL OF THEM.

 

I KNOW YOU WON'T LIKE ME WHEN I AM MISERABLE AND A MOANING OLD  "MOTHERHEN ".

 

SO I'LL CLOSE NOW AND WISH YOU ALL A GOOD DAY  UNTIL I AM BACK NEXT TIME.

 

HOPING I'M HAPPY WARM AND LAUGHING AND  WRITiNG MORE  " MY SIMPLE RHYMES "
