It's A Bit Terse, But It Ain't A Curse
Photograph copyright: DAVID McMAHONIf you've already seen my post from yesterday, titled Cut To The Quick, then maybe you'll have a chuckle at this limerick. You see, I should have paid heed to this photograph taken on the picturesque main street of the little Outback town called Nhill in the Wimmera region. It's a strangely prophetic image, with a speed warning and a bakery sign. If I'd watched my speed a few minutes later, I would have saved myself (gratuitous reference to the bakery) a lot of um, dough. Okay, so here's the limerick ...
One morning, on the highway near Nhill,
I was hit with a sizeable bill,
The sight of a copper,
Was a real heart-stopper,
For me, but not for my m-i-l.
