So. I was contacted yesterday, by the notorious underworld figure known only as “JLS“, with nothing less than a poem about Toby Carvery. The offending article goes thusly:
I once went for a tobarius cavarius
the company was quite scarius
15 potatoes in one sitting
all night I was a shitting
Lashings of turkey and beef,
boy did my belly have some grief
Imodium took the pain away
but i’m still going back again today!
Well, I took this as a direct challenge to a hip-hop style “rhyme-battle”, and being the warrior I am, I accept the gauntlet being thrust to forcibly in my face. Here is my response:
Potatoes, Meat, Gravy
I want them on my plate
Roasted, steamed, boiled
This is what I ate
Piling on the food
The mound is getting high
Just one more roastie
They’re going to touch the sky
The plate is nearly empty
Something I have to prove
I’ve scoffed the last potato
I’m just too stuffed to move
Well, it’ not really for me to say, but I think the good has triumphed over evil yet again. If you want more information on Toby Carvery please click here.
