Irish Nursery rhyme

Me mother caught a flea (used with  jumping rope)

One, two, three,
Me mother caught a flea,
She put it in the teapot
And made a cup of tea.
The flea jumped out,
Me mother gave a shout
And in came daddy 
With his shirt hanging out.

Riddle Song
traditional

I gave my love a cherry that has no stone
I gave my love a chicken that has no bone
I gave my love a ring that has no end
I gave my love a baby with no cryen

How can there be a cherry that has no stone?
How can there be a chicken that has no bone?
How can there be a ring that has no end?
How can there be a baby with no cryen?

A cherry, when it's blooming, it has no stone
A chicken when it's pipping, it has no bone
A ring when it's rolling, it has no end
A baby when it's sleeping, has no cryen

Times, they are a changing.

Coal has powered Britain for more than a century.  But Friday's landmark moment - the first 24 hour period without any coal powered generation - is a sign of how the once mighty fuel is being consigned to history.  Other than a few small manufactures, coal is no lonvger used in the UK.

get to church...please with ur children

What is it they say about relationships in the south????

A married couple who were struggling to conceive were revealed to be biological twins after a routine DNA test at a fertility clinic in Mississippi. The couple had met during college and instantly hit it off.  In truth, their biological parents had died in a car crash when the couple were infants. With no family willing to adopt them, they were put into the care of the state and adopted out into separate families.  But neither of their new families were told that the child had a twin and neither knew of the existence of the other.  Yeah that’s what they all say.

I should be so lucky

Nurses in Denmark benevolently broke their hospital’s regulations last week to grant a 75-year-old man his dying wish.  After doctors at Aarhus University Hospital told Carsten Flemming Hansen that he was too sick for surgery and would die within days from an aortic aneurysm, he revealed the his final wishes, to smoke a cigarette, drink a glass of cold white wine outside, while watching the sun set.  His nurses complied.  God is that peace or what?

speaking in tongues don't be too quick to an opnion

Glossolalia or speaking in tongues, according to linguists, is the fluid vocalizing of speech-like syllables that lack any readily comprehended meaning, in some cases as part of religious practice in which it is believed to be a divine language unknown to the speaker The first occurrence of speaking in tongues occurred on the day of Pentecost

St Paul says the one who speaks in tongues speaks not to man but God about the mysteries of the Holy Spirit.
