The Grass On the Other Side.

The Grass On the Other Side.

A Poem by John Alexander McFadyen
"

Hull-a port city in East Yorkshire, England. Mull or the Isle of Mull is the second largest island of the Inner Hebrides, and lies off the west coast of Scotland. F**s-Slang for cigarettes.

"

There was a young lady from Hull

who wanted to go live on Mull,

so she packed up her bags

including her f**s

and now she finds life quite dull!

Paul bloody Mccartney ruined Mull with that bloody song of his with wings. The video for it still makes me cringe.
Hull wins for me :)
Ps...by a strange coincidence, there is a place in Scotland called Dull, which IS twinned with Boring, which I think is in Oregon :)

Ah but what places to reside! :)
Bit of a difference between Mull and Hull, though Paul McCartney raved over Mull of Kintyre and I certainly love the song and those bagpipes. She should have done her research. A city girl would have trouble settling in to such a quiet way of life. Sounds good to me though. Are you in limerick mode now? I enjoyed this John.
