A limerick a week #236

They don’t like it up ’em!

I had my first covid vaccination last week and, as with the flu jab at the end of last year, I was amazed that I never felt the needle go in.

That was unlike the time that I sliced into my left index finger with a fish gutting knife and required several stitches followed by both a tetanus and a triplopen jab into my left bum cheek.

The triplopen hurt so much that I couldn’t put any weight on my left leg and, having walked purposefully into A&E with a bloodied hand, I came out limping heavily. As Corporal Jones would say, “They don’t like it up ’em!” and neither did I!

Here’s the limerick…

A doctor was asked would she come
To a man with a badly cut thumb.
She put in some stitches
Then pulled down his britches
For a triplopen shot in the bum!
