David. You are a horrid man. ![]() On the first day of
Christmas my clubmates all watched me, Misjudge the height of
a tree.
On the second day of Christmas my clubmates all watched me, Deadstick miles
downwind And misjudge the height
of a tree.
On the third day of Christmas my clubmates all watched me, Lose orientation Deadstick miles
downwind
And misjudge the height
of a tree.
<snip/> On the twelveth day of Christmas my clubmates all watched me, Laugh at their
misfortunes Dowse myself with
glow-fuel Try to scrounge a
glowplug Do a cartwheel landing Tip my chair o'er
backwards
Drop sandwich in to
cowpat Smash my favourite
thermos Bring the wrong wings Tip the nose on takeoff Lose orientation Deadstick miles
downwind
And misjudge the height
of a tree.
