His truncheon it was!
Thank you, Gav

Love the compliment, Myra!
Happy it gave you a laugh.

Made me think of Sid James and his incredible laugh! Nice one, John!

Ha, good one, John!! I’m still laughing. Blitzkrieger, indeed. I look forward to my Saturday morning laugh!
Don’t know how many more I can manage,
Dear Willow,
but it doesn’t matter much as long as the few I have posted raise a laugh.
Big hugs
John
Mein Gott! Hilarious! John, thank you for a good laugh this morning!
Take care,

Pepper,
Happy that I made you laugh. Right now, our world is a very sad and dark place and we need a few laughs now and then.
Best to you
John
LOL! I don’t know why my reader did not show me your post yesterday – but so glad to read this on Sunday morning, good laugh to start my Sunday. Thanks so much John!
You’re most welcome, Indah. Hope I can manage a few more ‘silly saturdays’ we all need a chuckle in a dark, sad world.
You take the best care
John
I wish I could read German!
Thank you so much for reading and commenting.
‘hausfrau’ is housewife; ‘Himmel’ is heaven; ‘Blitzkrieger’
is an action hero; ‘Mein Gott’ is My God
Best to you

Oh John, this one put tears in my eyes! So funny!
‘Mein Gott!’ indeed! 😀
Glad you liked it, Kate
I did indeed. Made me laugh – not an easy thing to do on a Manic Monday!
Reblogged this on Odyssey of a Novice Writer and commented:
John Flanagan has a gift for limericks. This one made me laugh aloud. Everyone can use a little humor on a Monday, right? Enjoy! (And check out his blog, please. He also has some beautiful poetry there as well as other things to delight you.)
Thank you, Kate, for that kindness

In regular English, this would not have sounded as f.r.i.s.k.y. as I imagine it was intended. Strange when I think about it because I imagine it would be the other way around. Anyway, I enjoyed this limerick immensely. 😀
Thank you very much for reading and commenting,
i appreciate that deeply
Best Wishes

Wicked good you are in any language. Winnie and myself love these Saturday outings.
Thank you both, thank you so much
This is the wicked side of you that is so entertaining and humorous. The hausfrau and a truncheon too far! Loved it John, loved I!
still too much Brunhildes and Siegrieds in Wagner’s Germany!
Thank You very much for reading and responding.
Best wishes
john
Enjoyed my visit here today! The Limericks are a lot of fun.
