Welcome to the forum, mate. Good yarn, it's up there on the ridicularity scale.

Cheers, Marty

Hahaha Henry P Snicklesnorter! That was a ripper! Galvo was a very clever fellow to get koala fur stuck between his one tooth :? .

I can tell you have an interesting imagination. I look forward to more of your hilarity.

Fair suck of the sav mate !!! Almost as good as those old stories about Drop Bears !!! :lol:

Not sure on the ground, down rhymes but you can get away with that if you are reading or performing it.




Cheers Bob

Brilliant yarn, rhyme and visuals all joy to my brain, Henry. Thank you for the morning facial exercises.
Galvo and Emu won a round each, cool; both go home winners despite feathers and fur.

This is one super cyberspace, Henry with plenty of room for all.
Hi everyone

Thanks to all of you for your kind words.

I'm not a prolific writer, - just dash something off when the occasion suits.

I've dredged up another from memory and that will probably be it for me for a while.

This seems like a great place :D
