It’s that time of year again, when our thoughts turn to peace, goodwill, and giving to others – principally the Chancellor.
In the spirit of the festive season, I have written a new carol, in line with the times, that I hope will inspire others to go forth and do likewise. (Write carols, that is - not give money to the Chancellor. Obviously.)
God rest ye merry, Forumeers let nothing you dismay!
Except the price of diesel that you’re going to have to pay,
In 18 months or so, when the EU has had its way.
Oh, sod this, I’m going down the pub, down the pub,
Oh, sod this, I’m going down the pub.
And when they heard the ghastly news, the Forumeers all said
“**** this for a game of chess, I’m going to the Med
Or buying a displacement craft and going slow instead.”
Oh, sod this……
And some said that we should resist and lobby our MPs,
“Engage them in debate, and cite the freedom of the seas,”
But Politicians think that we’re as popular as fleas.
Oh, sod this…….
And others aim to dodge the tax; their plans are carefully laid,
They’ll sell it 13 miles offshore, with Guernsey duty paid
But Excisemen are on the ball, and planning their first raid…
Oh, sod this…….
The raggies are rejoicing, as their enemy is slain.
The Solent will be empty, like a tranquil country lane,
But even they will find the extra cost to be a pain.
Oh, sod this……
But there are some who’ll see no change, their spending will stay steady
For them there’ll be no change of price, or moving to the Meddy,
‘Cos if you’ve got a petrol boat, you’re being fleeced already /forums/images/icons/frown.gif.
Oh, sod this…….
And unto Mister Gordon Brown the Forumeers all hum,
“We do not want to see your bill when higher prices come
- So imitate a Pelican, and stick it up yer b*m…”
Oh, sod this………..
