LE PERE FOUETTARD

entry picture

(A re-post of a re-post. But you can't get too much culture)

 

My Santa you will never see upon your Christmas card,

The counterpart of Pere Noel: his brother, Pere Fouettard.

I know if I’m a good girl that his presents will be mine;

Le Pere Noel will visit me, avuncular, benign.

 

But if I’ve let my standards slip and been a naughty gel

There will be no Christmas gifts from saintly Pere Noel.

‘Cos if I’ve stained my copybook with morals loose and marred

I must await the stinging hand on me of Pere Fouettard.

 

“So come in from the cold, Monsieur.  Be seated on my bed

And reprimand this naughty girl and make my bottom red.

I do not care for chocolates, for slippers or a hanky

What I have planned is for your hand to spank me, Father. Spank me”.

 

So picture me on Santa’s knee as wrappings you unfurl

But make it hard, Monsieur Fouettard, I’ve been a naughty girl.

John/Po

My bit's shrunk over time.....

Eth says it's happened to her Bert too.....

Yes John, I'm only 4ft 6 now. Life wears you down....


These two have a habit of butting in. They're pensioners so we must be a bit gentle on them. We'll be like them one day John/Po.....


Before being butted in by Ethel and Bert I was about to say

My bit has shrunk, it's short
No longer can it rort
It's feeling so deflated
But life it that has tort

You too Don?.....

Careful what you say to your scriptwriter luv?

Who's he Eth?...

Go back to sleep.....

zzzzzzzz......

I did a bit of rorting
(Sharp practice) when was young
When used on youngish ladies
All I got was stung

I'd advise against rorting (sharp practice type) at our age John. Waste of time. Ladies just not interested.

A “rort”, Don? You’ve taught me a word I didn’t know. Google also says it means to engage in sharp practice in Strine.

A hanky is for blowing nose
Or so I thought was taught
While panky brings its problems
At wild parties (a rort)

Stick to the hanky at our age John. It's safer...

At my time of life, P.O., hanky still has its attractions. But panky is more problematic.
