[quote=“Annie-Xmas, post:1838, topic:712149”] Great ending! And I’m glad the king reference got in there~] Thankyou. **Just a reminder to all:** _**It is fine for any ‘player’ to contribute more than one line per Limerick. The only restrictions are that the lines cannot be consecutive, and the writer of the first line cannot write the fifth.**_ _(This preclusion is only to insure that no one player can monopolise)._ Having said that, I broke this ‘rule’ myself, above - but only because the rhyme had stalled for a couple of days and I feared it might be abandoned. ---
