Laughing Along With A Limerick

Here’s to a great week! Your new limerick challenge is as follows:

DRAIN

Your challenge last week was to write a limerick using the word MUG in it somewhere. Here are your masterpieces:

Christine Mallband-Brown:

I really feel like a mug!
I gave my friend a hug…
He started to sneeze
Cough and wheeze
I caught a really bad bug!

Kim Smyth:

I once met a pug with a mug
So ugly I gave him a hug
To make him feel good
I gave him a hood
Now he’s cute as a bug in a rug!

Ruth Blogs Here:

Drink my tea from a lovely big mug
Don’t sip delicate mouthfuls but glug
With a satisfied sigh
Enjoy mood-boosting high
Love my internal, tea-flavoured hug.

TanGental:

An etiquette teacher, quite smug,
Said, ‘One doesn’t drink tea from a mug.
It is clear one oughter
Drink from cup and saucer,
With the milk poured from a jug.’

–

The radio told me ‘Today’s muggy,’
Which made me come over all fuggy.
But before very long
I knew they were wrong
As today’s not muggy, but tuggy.
(And tomorrow’s wuggy then thuggy, and fruggy…)

Lance Greenfield:

Lord Snooty was terribly smug.
He looked down on the people, whom he regarded as mugs.
But he got his come-uppance,
Which cost us just tuppence.
Prunes made him run more than any drug!
