Talk of going away on hols

A Rayt Good Tannin'!

Aye up owd lad, thous lewkin grand!

Weer ever ast thou bin?

Now let may guess, it's Benidorm, just layin' out on't sand!

Ah once went ter Benidorm!

A change from Skeg' or Brid'!

Me fost flight in a airyplane!

May tewk off frum East Mid'!

Ah only tewk a pair of shorts!

Nobody weers a vest!

Theers wimmin swimming in the sea

All sunbont on theer chests!

What's that!

Yow anna bin awe!

Yow inna bont at all!

You've just bin creosotin't'shed!

An' pot fell offen t'wall!

Com ere owd lad!

Let's gerrit off!

I think it's dyed yer coat!

But let's lewk on the brightside!

Yowve gorra tan fer nowt!

Ted Hancock,

Oakwood.
