inspired by Fandango’s One Word Challenge (FOWC) of 24 January 2022, handbook.
Remember, my 80yo grandpa has just taken up with an 18yo.
On their wedding night, grandpa was stuck,
On the one hand, could not believe luck,
But he got into a stew,
He’d forgot what to do,
Had to search out the nearest handbook.
I developed Grandpa into a series of limericks, which can be found here.

Awkward! ๐ These days he would’ve just googled on his phone.

Did he have Wedding Nights for Dummies on his shelf? Could be a game changer.

I did a series about all my family members once. All the dumb-ass ways they snuffed it.
