Sparky's Crufts Lament

[quintessence]

The boys have gone, they've left me here, with just one backward glance,

I could have gone to help them but I didn't get the chance,

They packed the van, it's all in place, full of bits and bobs,

Talking very loudly, don't think they heard my sobs,

I wouldn't be a nuisance, I wouldn't be a pest,

All I'd do is be their mate, I'm sure I'd pass the test

But the Kennel Club don't let you be a trade stand holders'mate,

You have to get your show gear on and go through the appropriate gate,

I'm sulking now, putting on the face, sitting in the dark,

But just a tick, who's that I hear singing like a lark

It's Mum, she's got her coat on, wahey WE'RE GOING DOWN THE PARK.

Have a nice trip Dad and Mattie, see you soon

Love your boy Sparky

That's great :thumbsup:

But listen Sparky I'm sure they will fetch you some presents home with them, just keep sulking and giving them your best sad eyes that should do the trick :- "
