I recall a fragmentary verse from schooldays and wonder if anyone can add to it.

One fine day in the middle of the night
Two deaf and dumb got up to fight
One was blind and the other could'nt see
blah de blah etcetera
Paralysed donkey passing by
Kicked the blind man in the eye
Knocked him through a nine inch wall
Into a ditch and drowned them all

I think there were other lines including coming back to life but it was all along time ago.

Cheers Freddy

A lot of those bits I now recognise.

Will sort a compilation and see how far I get. Expenses paid invite to the Smithsonian would be good but probably a natter over a couple of pints at Whitby!

Keep 'em coming if anyone else has anything.
