Re: A poem for homework

Ha Ha Kym, I think I remember that poem. Am I a nutcase for real? Moi, 
absolutely not (although some might disagree), but I do do some nutty things at times, mostly unintentional. Like the time I got bogged on a country road and the 'helpful' farmer said he would tow me out with his tractor. I had walked quite a way to get to his house but could see my car across his paddock and said to him "would it be ok to cross that to go back", he just said "yeah" so off I "pottled" (oh that's gonna stick 
) but he hadn't told me that the paddock was all soggy so I was up to my ankles in mud. I got to the next town and couldn't find a tap low enough to wash my feet so used the public toilets, - stick a foot in, flush and repeat. Got my feet reasonably clean but didn't do a lot for my shoes. 
At least there weren't any crocodiles, I don't think.
