It was a very hot day in the city
And people were flocking to the lido
I swam there frequently on warm days
With my wife and her best friend
But today we had decided just to soak up the rays
And stretched out in the grassed area
To the right of the main entrance
It was then that Stella noticed
That she had lost her expensive shades
She asked if they had been handed in
But this enquiry drew a complete blank
The loss had threatened to cloud our day
When I noticed the missing glasses in the pool
I was asked to retrieve them from six feet under
Which I did and I was later treated to a pint
At the Bird With Two Feathers
On the East Kent Road
