There was a French man called Ritong,
Who stood out from the BBO throng,
In one game, under duress,
He took a finesse,
And Farfie exclaimed 'Well, that WAS wrong!'

-----


There was a French lass called Farfie,
Who stood out more than her dear Henri,
When she took a finesse,
And claimed all the rest,
She shouted "Thats how you do it, mon cheri!"

You don't have to wait for that. I have it on a CD.

The Shadows: Apache, 1960.

Hank B. Marvin (born Brian Rankin on 28th October 1941 in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, England) was and still is a great guitar player.

He can also play Bridge (Over Troubled Waters).

Roland :rolleyes:

Somewhat off topic...

There once was a young man named Slothel
Who worked in a smelly French brothel
When he finished his work
He started to jerk
And his mouth went dripping and frothel

PS or even that you keep abreast; nice to have one in a cupboard somewhere for those lonelier moments

There was a programmer named Uday,
Who was asked what he did all day,
He said 'I spit out all this code
For you guys to download,
So i can spy on you all whilst you play'

-----

There was a Canadian* called Fred,
Who was asked what he did in bed, :blink:
He said 'It doesnt involve sheep,
As i count cards in my sleep,
And i cant get 52 out of my head!!!'

PS assuming his Green Card hasnt come through :rolleyes:

There was a Belgian called Marc, (spwdo :rolleyes: )
Whose spelling was way off the mark;
Although he couldnt give a shot,
When his spelling was hot,
His bite was worse than his bark!

There was a bridge player named Hamman
Who grabbed a guitar and went jammin'
  With Marvin and Wald,
  But he never got called,
So he picked up some dice for backgammon.

Meckwell might be harder to rhyme.

There was a Turk called Kulay,
First name is Aisha, by the way,
She plays with the best
And she knows she is blessed.
She plays with me. What more can i say?

Here's one

There was a young man named Micky (B)
Who had a reputation for being a thickie
He always went off
Which lost him a lot
But he said "I care not one dickie"

Very uncharitable and inaccurate. Fred lives in Nevada, not Utah.

I once had a fistful of kings,
but my partner was fishing for swings,
his psychic "one club"
(he had been down the pub)
led to 6N off five for my sins.

I once had a fistful of jacks,
3 in each of the reds and the blacks,
When i tabled my hand,
My opps didnt understand,
When i said that 6 points was my max.

There was once a Dane called Roland,
Whose vugraph remarks were off-hand,
As we are now sponsored by Pepsi,
Although their donations are flexi,
All Coke bettings from now on are banned!

When i play with Master Slothy
I always prefer to be dummy
He "hufss and puffs" in anger
When I play as declarer
And gets pains in his tummy

I ruff his winning Ace
I put him under finesse
I make sure he is endplayed
I think enough has been said
I put the poor guy under duress

The Turk :)
