Margaret Thatcher

I had a dark nightmare concerning,
That bouffant haired vampire returning,
This one thing I crave,
May they dig a deep grave,
At long last the lady’s for burning.

Oh yes, it’s Tuesday Maggie RIP ‘Rick Off.

All Limericks by 1pm.

Standard ‘Rick off rules apply.

UPDATE:

First place:

The Devil was wearing a frown
He said, ‘Somebody, catch me this clown
We can’t let her stay
She’s been here for a day
And closed three of me furnaces down.’

Forever remember the date
When the workers rejoiced in their hate
She was not for turning
She is not returning
It’s only three decades too late.

Well my suspicion that the Irish Lotto made a major clanger last Saturday (April 6) was right. It would appear that a ‘9′ was transposed when the balls were being printed and ended up as a ‘6′ ON THE ’9′ BALL. However as everything is supposed to be ‘squeaky clean’ and overseen, balls weighed and checked, how did this get by all the scrutinisers?
I wonder how much this blunder will cost the Lotto (or the taxpayer). The even bigger question – how long has that ball been in use (and where have I put all my old tickets)?
