Funny thing happened while catching up on reading Heckety Beck (a blogette from ireland) this evening....
I have lifted copied parts of her post to announce the winners of her Doggerel Rhymes contest, and am still laughing that I have a win!

Oh you are so funny!! I'm glad you're pleased! I certainly meant to email people yesterday but the day got away from me- you know? My folks are returning from a month away and my sister and I have been trying to put their garden to rights so that Mom doesn't just arrive and start weeding instead of resting and catching her breath...that was yesterday- the garden was rather jungly!!
OMG, you said "pee"!?!! Congrats on your win, though--very clever! Did the jelly worm jingle ever leave your mind?
