[TalkinPeece]

On the first day of Brexit my Government gave to me
A Unicorn in a May tree

I have written all twelve days and will post each day, but if anybody comes up with better ideas than my current ones, I'll happily update my template file

.

Oh oh oh - I love you! Here's mine -

12 broken promises
11 Eton Tories
10 Brexit ministers
9 different backstops
8 failed amendments
7 sinking ferries
6 exploding journalists
5 TOTAL HEADFUCKS
4 Withdrawal Agreements
3 years of chaos
2 general elections
And a bus dangling from a money tree.

Alt last line; And a broken and fighting UK.

wait and see :-)

I like but cannot create. Go on, OP, give us the rest.

thread's cheered me right oop, OP.

lljkk
Nah, I'm a meanie .... I'll trickle them out over a couple of days

Do I get a mention for suggesting it?
Yours are much better than my initial efforts however!

well OP I think you should post the lot now, or we won't believe you wrote it all without the ideas of others

brilliant sabbatical - "bus dangling from a money tree" - genius!

Can’t wait to hear the rest but love sabbatical’s already.

Awesome!

bellini seeing your name made me beetle off and do a preppers version.

12 packs of bog roll
11 tins of corned beef
10 bags of lentils
9 jars of chick peas
8 trays of beans
7 tins of milk
6 secret cupboards
5 huge freezers
4 sacks of rice
3 mouse traps
2 camping stoves
And lock on the garage door.
