Les publishes all his own material; as it's his livelihood, please ask his permission before you post any more than a brief excerpt...
His occasional table poem (which is hilarious in its entirety!) is just one of many - one of my favourites is his different view of the Titanic disaster - a polar bear is asking 'Have you got any news of the iceberg? My family were on it, you see...'
He also created the character 'Cosmo - the fairly accurate knife-thrower' - in the chorus, the name of his lovely assistant keeps changing!
