Mother in law (93) has been with us for nearly a month now. Going home on Monday. Tonights entertainment has been a performance of Hilaire Bellocs Cautionary Tales, recited from memory and very well received. Virtually the same set as at my first ever gig aged 9 at primary school. Gangsta rap? Not a patch on Belloc. Jim (who ran away from his Nurse, and was eaten by a Lion), Matilda (who told Lies and was Burned to Death) Henry King (who chewed Bits of String and was Early Cut Off in Dreadful Agonies) and this little gem: Young Algernon, the Doctors Son Was playing with a Loaded Gun. He pointed it straight at his Sister. Aimed very carefully: but missed her. His Father, who was standing near, The Loud Explosion chanced to hear And reprimanded Algernon For playing with a Loaded Gun. Beat that, 50 Cent.
