‘’Thanks for having us Lizzie…it was a great day!’’
‘’Thanks for coming, Sal!’’
‘’Oh, Sal..by the way…can we expect a poem?’’
(Dammit, I thought I’d got away with it!)
STOP PRESS!
Order, Order!
Listen to our Queen!
She has a declaration,
To be heard, not seen!
‘’The government of this fine land
Are nothing but a shower!
I do decree they must be sacked
They can’t rule for one more hour!’’
‘’From this day forth, I do decree,
( Let your applause be hearty)
The rulers of this land will be…
THE GOOD OLD… VINTAGE PARTY!’’
‘’And so my subjects, hear my words,
I say, ‘’ Out with the old’’
And umm,errr,ahhh, I’ll say again
T’is , umm.. in with the old!’’
‘’With me, at my fine palace,
Fresh from a place called Frome,
Are two fine gals who can do the job
And lift the doom and gloom’’
‘’A washerwoman as new PM!
Can you really believe that?
A milliner as deputy!
This calls for a new hat!’
‘’This is the way that it will be,
The way that I declare!
So welcome Liz …you are a sport
Along with your mate, Clare!’’
‘’Thus, in no particular order,
( So please clap if you can)
The cabinet , from this day forth
Will be this happy clan…’’
‘’Minister for Patchwork,
Will be the clever Hen
She sews and sews, from morn til night
In her fabby Den!’’
‘’Minister for Interiors
Is someone with such style
It is, of course, Amanda!
With her lovely smile!’’ ;-)
‘’Minister for Defence
De sheds and de garden..ing!
Is that lovely lady Aileen
She'll make your heart sing!’’
‘’Minister for vintage clobber
Especially fine shoes!
Is Donna Flower, the stylish gal
I hope you like this news?!’’
‘’Minister for vintage displays
Trixie, that friendly lass!
Her presentation, faultless
We like her style and class!’’
‘’Minister for all stuffed friends!
Will be Michele (from Bath)
Her bunnies and her bears
Will always make you laugh!’’
‘’Minister for fine china
Is a very important role
And so, I do declare,
The job goes to Jayne Soule!’’
‘’Speaker…now you’ll love this!
The speaker will be Woo!
‘Order order’, will be no more.
To be replaced with a loud ‘WOO HOO!’’’
‘’Chancellor, simply has to be
Someone we can trust!
So I appoint Barbara to this post
This really is a must!’’
‘’Minister for Education
Will be Sally Hall!
All children to learn vintage words,
Pinned upon the wall!’’
‘’Minister for Justice…
Mr Snippets ,what a fave!
His collection of vintage whips
Will help us all behave!'' ;-) ;-)
‘’As the days progress,
More roles will be a decided.
So don’t be sad if you’re not on the list
But I do have to be guided…’’
‘’By the two young gals who stole the show
At today’s Vintage Bazaar
They showed leadership and stamina
I think they will go far!’’
This government will work soooo well!
This team …what a variety!
We’ll show the land what is really meant
By that Big Society!
And so, please join me in applause
And thank them for the day!
Hip hip, Hip hip, Hip hip, Hip hip
Hooray, hooray, hooray!
Three cheers for Lizzie and Clare and the new..
Vintage Party!
;-)
Oh you are a clever thing Sal - I'm sure the country would be much better run with the Vintage Party in charge!

What do we want?
We don't know
When do we want it?
Want what?

Absolutely brilliant and what a great idea...the Vintage Party to run the country...if only we could find the time!!!
Lots of love...
