John Lamb

Postby stevenstirk » Fri Mar 20, 2015 3:57 pm

John Lamb's ego was grazed
Mother gave him some milk
because he butted her, yet he
felt that one day he should
seek pastures new. John felt
that his was not a level playing
field. He needed not a father
to ram home his discipline.
His father had spent his life
gamboling and having extra
marital relations. John was a
bastard son and the son of a
bastard. His father had always
been promiscuous, and had,it
is said, fleeced his mother.
John felt that life was too short
for grudges. Few questions
were ever asked .They had a
'coming out' party. At this,
they met their father for the
first and last time. It was called
a 'Tup - aware' party. Age was
not on their side though.
Many of them had only lived to
be forty.............kilos.
