British Lung Foundation, always there to help.

β€’37 Replies

The boy stood on the burning deck

Coughing and gasping "Flipping heck."

"I think I'm going to breath my last

If I don't do something very fast".

He had a badge with a big red balloon

That he had found in the Captain's room.

What's this he asked in consternation?

"Is it the British Lung Foundation?"

"Yes," he heard his mate intone,

As he handed the lad his mobile phone.

"Ring this number and ask for advice",

The lad didn't need telling twice.

The lady answered with this useful tip,

"First, get off that ****** ship!!"

Lol. Don. Again a truly exceptional ditty ( if I dare call such an excellent rhyme that). It reminds me of another Limerick I heard in the military about a boy on a burning deck. However it is not repeatable in such gentle company.

Lovely title Don thank you. Have not taken a call from a ship yet, but there is still time πŸ˜€

Thanks Debs, I'm sure if you do the ****** will be replaced by "burning" no matter what naughty members might think. 🀣x
