WI-13 The Promise

RHYME TIME
You sent a text to my dog ‘n’ bone
didn’t understand a thing you wrote
I called you on your home trombone
got a message saying try cell phone
I clocked you on the apples an’ pears.
Later mate, I’m in a right two an’ eight.
Good job I didn’t wanna make a date
I promise you I would be late!

    Hi Keith, We live close to the curry mile in Manchester and I had a curry just down the road from the pub - but I wouldn't take the wife!

  5. Hi Paisley and Mary,
    there are a few bits of rhyming slang I'll try and enlighten you.
    dog 'n' bone = telephone
    trombone = telephone
    apples an' pears = stairs
    two and eight = state
    clocked = clock face, saw your face
    Hope this helps!

  9. This was fun. Like a puzzle!

    I'd gone online to the urban dictionary to figure out what you'd said -- and I was able to do so.

    The I saw you'd supplied the 'definitions' in the comments section. Cool post!

  10. That had a nice, fun rhythm to it. It felt like you could turn it into a rap song.
