(Broadwas, The Lidl and Aldi Of Croquet Clubs)
I feel that the season is coming
Now the subscription is set
Though to guess the exact date is mind-numbing
So don’t go to Betfred just yet
But why do I think it’s good value?
Why is it such a fair price?
Well there aren’t many good yearly meetings
Where the Chair jokes ‘bout lawns and some rice
So why do our fees outshine Asda?
We don’t do bargains, or discounts or pasta
It’s the excitement and thrills – anticipation!
As Whizzbang Billy’s hoop shots fly right past ya’
There’s not much you can buy for one twenty
A couple of meals of posh squid?
An afternoon for two at the Albion?
For that? Wouldn’t give you a quid!
So what does your fee actually give you?
For a start it will open the door
To hoops, muddy balls and good banter
And repairs, stopping holes in the floor
So it’s well worth a visit to Bank Piggy
If you don’t, you might miss Friday cake,
Or Norris jokes…(second thoughts that’s no biggy)
Send your dosh to S.Smith, or he’ll quake
Clink clink, Asda Price!
