Dick's Limericks

Calling all North Norfolk poets! We have an occasional series of limericks on the Saturday Breakfast show where we gradually build a limerick line by line to finish up with ....who knows what??

Here's a selection of ones you've come up with so far. Remember it's not the full limerick we look for, it's just one line at a time. Keep listening for more in the future.... 

1.   There was a young lady from Trunch
      On chicken heads she loved to munch
      She did try a kipper
      Which leapt up and bit her
      She said was THAT the credit crunch

2.   There was an old fella from Holt
      Who fell off a colt with a jolt
      When he fell off his horse
      He found he could talk Norse
      And started a Viking revolt
 
3.   There was a lady from Cley
      Who some people thought was a spy
      She went out in a boat
      But it didn't float
      And she had to call the RNLI.
 
4.   There was a young fella from Wells
      Who had an obsession with bells
      He rang them all night
      Until it got light
      Then spent the next day in the cells
 
5.   A radio presenter in Stody
      Had big ears and friends called him Noddy
      He had a hat with a bell
      And a strange sense of smell
      Which at 50 yards, could sniff a hot toddy.

6.   There was a young man from Costessey,
      Whose wife was exceedingly bossy
      So to take her to task
      He covered her face with a mask
      And rode into town with a posse!

7.   There was a young lady from Snoring,  
      Whose boyfriend thought she was boring
      To give him a shock
      She turned the key in the lock
      So he couldn't get in in the morning

8.   There was a young fella from Kelling
      Whose secret no one was telling
      He walked down the street
      On his hands, not his feet
      (As it stopped his ankles from swelling)

9.   There was a young fella from Cromer,
      Who was a bit of a moaner,
      When he walked on the beach,
      He did nothing but preach,
      And now the moaner's a loaner!

10.   There was a young fella called Guy,
       Who lived on a houseboat in Cley,
       On Bonfire night,
       He had a huge fright
       With a firework shaped like a pie! 

11.   There was a young fella from Burnham
       Who went off to Stiffkey, worming
       He caught two or three
       Then fell in the sea
       A bass watching said "That'll larn ‘im"

12.   (When Graham appeared in a local panto)
       A man in a panto in Cley
       Was Graham, the radio guy
       He climbed on the stage,
       Lost his place on the page
       And poked his pen in his eye

13.   There was an old fella called Punch
       Who went down to Wells for his lunch
       He took with him this rhyme
       Then committed a crime
       Because he left without paying for brunch

14.   There was a young mother in Holt
       Whose tipple was a nice whisky malt
       For a Mother's Day gift
       She had a face-lift
       Now she looks like "Bernie the Bolt"

15.   There was a young lady from Guist
       Who was accused of being part of a heist
       She stole 10 carat gold
       In a manner most bold,
       As the lure to be famous enticed!

16.   There was a young man in the fog
       Who tripped and fell over a log
       He looked out at Wells Bar
       But couldn't see far
       And said "Blast" - or words to that dialogue...

17.   There was a young fella from Thurning
        Who felt a terrible burning
        He woke in the night
        His pyjamas alight
        Smoking in bed...is concerning!

18.   A young man on Valentine's Day
       Was keen to take his sweetheart away
       They hopped on a plane
       And flew off to Spain
       Now they're happily married - OLE!
