Do Not Worry. All Is Well

I have had to close the Like-Minders Theme Park during the recent extreme fire risk period.

Imagine the insurance paperwork if it burnt down....

What? ….You don't insure imaginary Theme Parks?

What sort of mickey mouse company are you?

You insure Liberace's fingers but not my vivid imagination and creative mind?

The line's gone dead?...bloody useless company

Knowing how dear it is to everyone's heart I kept a 24/7 watch on our Rollercoaster. Despite smelling a bit smoky she is ready to take Like-Minders on board and roll around the Park again.

As a safety precaution I had her checked our by the RSB (Rollercoaster Safety Board). They assure me everything is OK. The wheels are not going to fall off from heat exposure.

You'd like to come for a ride sir?

We'd love to have you on board. See our Head of Publicity (below). She forwards all enquiries to me

Yes, I know she's downing whiskey, but she does a good job.

While LMS is getting known
(By many WOLers it gets read)
Methinks many might be scared
Scared to enter, fear to tread

P'raps they scared of roller heights?
Prefer the dark and not the light?
Humour sense they lacketh so?
Here we go now doh see doh

If you would like to join the Like-Minders Society (LMS) and ride our Rollercoaster round the Theme Park to stops of offbeat poetical interest please contact our Leader.

We specialize in all things fun and offbeat.

We also invite offbeat poets into the Park. Not being members of WOL they are grateful for the opportunities LMS offers to present their work.

Do you feel the need to add some fun to your poetry journey? If so, this is the place for you

PS Despite our Leader having occasional flights of fancy we all like him. And he does a good job.
