Inspired by this thread viewtopic.php?f=8&t=10436 I offer the following as a starter.

Who can suggest the best last line?

A Kitchen Gardener from Kent,
Whose cucumbers always grew bent,
Put Viagra in water
(rather more than he ought to)

And right round the bend they went.
Do not put off thanking people when they have helped you, as they may not be there to thank later.

Excellent!

Another?

A bit more to complete this time.

And then there's the gardener in Wales,
Whose plot was infested with snails.

And then there's the gardener from Wales,
Whose plot was infested with snails,
So he collected them up,
Into a very large cup,
And tipped them out at Alan Refails. :) :wink:
Kind Regards, Old Herbaceous.

There's no fool like an old fool.

He said Oh gorblimey
They're horribly slimy
And they're eating my cabbage and kales!

But snails in Wales aren't anything new,
And he needed no more from you!
So he gathered the lot,
Threw them into a pot
And boiled up a very nice stew.

PS

OH, your contribution
Really made me smile.
But Refail doesn't rhyme with snail,
It actually rhymes with Vile :wink: :wink:

And then there’s the gardener in Wales
whose plot was infested with snails,
Blodwen, his wife,
Went mad with her knife
And now there’s no snails left in Wales!
