When our waiter said the food was on the house,
I didn't realise he meant it was going to be served
on roof slates!...

these days, "your food's on
the house" merely means it'll
be served on roof slates...(17 Syllables)

How on earth can John Bercow be allowed to drive the
Commons when he doesn't even know where neutral is?...

Who doesn't like a 3-liner? (Quite a few of you don't, apparently.) Well, I'll have you know that many a critic has said of my work "at least it's in English" - and as for the great Stephen Fry, he once said of me "Vincent who?" Let's just say I supply the litter to the litterati [sic - but only at times] - ie: I write rubbish. But rubbish mostly inspired by the HAIKU, the 17th Century Japanese verse form consisting of 3 lines and 17 (5-7-5) syllables. (WARNING: flash photography and limericks)
