C’s Firing
D for Kate
E’s a Peasy
F for And Ever

J for Archer
K for the Door
L’s a Poppin’
M for Sizing
N for Mouse
O for a Barrel
P for Rate
Q for a Bus
R for Daley
S for Rantzen
T for Chewing
U’s for Dinner?
V for Las Vegas
W Chances
X or Size?
Y for Eye
Z’s for Day
Hehehe I've never read the original but now I feel impressed with myself that I came up with the same idea. LOL
Thankyou, Aviva. “B for Mutton” is a definite improvement on my suggestion and was the entry for B in the Sebastian Faulks list.
I’m just wading my way through the book now, Stephen. It takes some determination as it’s a series of chapters which leap backwards and forwards through time and generations.
There’s only 25, Kev, in the angels’ alphabet - No L.
I learned 25 letter of the alphabet
I don't know why
Until I listened to your dulcet tones, John I was wondering what this was all about! Never heard of
Faulks's A Fool's alphabet, but I'm sure this one's much better. Clever & enjoyable ?
A for Any Fair / B for Mutton
Some are long and some are short pronunciations eg P and p.

Well done, Aviva. But don't stop now - more suggestions please.
I might have been a bit hasty because I've come up with some improvements myself.
