Kippers.

Kippers for breakfast

Kippers for tea

Kippers are lovely

Whenever it be.

The thing about kippers

Is when they've been ate

You have to remember

You've not finished yet

The smell hangs around

For quite a long time

And they'll always repeat

So remember this rhyme

[sassy59]

Another excellent rhyme Don. Thank you. I love kippers, smell and all. Xx 💋😂💋

[soul-123]

Really love Kippers and there smell!

[Jomo46]

Brilliant Don - yet again

[RoadRunner44]

I can smell them Don! I love killers oh, sorry, I mean kippers!

[skischool]

Those famous smoked and tasty delights we commonly knew as Kippers

Now seem to be a ghastly shade of yellow and resemble dead men's slippers

Once famous and served for breakfast to the culinary high classes

Now if they appeared upon my plate i would need to wear dark glasses.

Scruff's the cat and a slave who doesn't eat them x

[Hidden in reply to skischool]

Reminds me of the Isle of Man

When I was just a lad

I'd send a packet of 'em home

For my mum and dad.

Remember eating Manx kippers years ago.

[Kittykat2]

Funny how you sort of can smell them as soon as they are mentiioned.😏

You will never run out of ideas for rhymes Don well done 💕x

[CDPO16 in reply to Kittykat2]

Yes, I can smell them too though haven't eaten one for years.

[Kittykat2 in reply to CDPO16]

I know strange isnt it the smell instantly comes to mind not eaten for years either☺

[Caspiana]

I had swordfish yesterday. It was lovely and not too fishy!! 😊

[Hidden in reply to Caspiana]

You just ate the 🗡? 🤔

[Caspiana in reply to Hidden]

Swordfish, also known as Xiphias gladius. It's a non schooling fish. Just as well. They have long sword like "beaks" . If they swam in schools I think there would be many casualties. 😂😂😂They are found in temperate tropical seas. 😁

[Hidden in reply to Caspiana]

We don’t have uneducated fish here. I think I’ll another little tot then go to bed. Hic! 😊😘

[Caspiana in reply to Hidden]

😂😂😂

[CDPO16]

Like kippers but not the bones. Fiddly things to eat.

[Jason098765]

As soon as I saw the word kippers I knew It was you Don well done you made me laugh.

[Hidden in reply to Jason098765]

Must have been the smell from one or the other of us. 😂

[Lyd12]

Last time I had kippers was about sixty years ago, I was pregnant with our first baby and I thought I was going to die of indigestion!

[Hidden in reply to Lyd12]

I think dying of indigestion would have been a first, Iris, but I understand your reluctance to risk a repeat (pun intended) of the experience you had.

[MoyB]

I haven't eaten kippers for years, but now I can smell them and taste them! Thanks for the reminder, Don. xx Moy

[Spacecat1]

Used to live on kippers lived by the sea so always fresh, loved the smell and new potatoes. But one day I got some bones stuck couldnt breathe it was so frightening put me off them it scared me not touched since but still love the smell when I visit family and they have just had kippers.

[Hidden in reply to Spacecat1]

I only eat filleted boil in the bag ones now which only have a few soft bones which I don't notice. Like Skis said, they are not a patch on the old style fresh ones.

[Bingo88]

Super Rhyme again Don . Look out for them bones Have a good day Brian

[Shirleyj]

[Hidden in reply to 2greys]

Wow! I'd love a pond like that, what an interest. 🙂

[2greys]

I have kippers 2/3 days a week!

[peege]

oooo you've reminded me I used to get the boil in the bag ones, reduces the smell. I wonder if they still come like that, an excellent source of protein & fish oil so I shall try to find some.

Hope the sun is shining where you are as it is here in the west country 😎 - at last!

[Hidden]

Tesco have them, two in a bag with a lump of butter, very easy to do. 🙂 Cold in the NW last night but bright and sunny now. Can’t go out unfortunately having new fences put up ready for the winter gales.
