I come to you with hat in hand, 
I've been really bad, 
I have not been active for a week, 
I know it's really sad. 
But my life is now different, 
Full of stress and strife, 
These are the dangerous times, 
For working is my wife. 
So, I'm at home with Sophie, 
I'm on lots of leave, 
I have the housework to do, 
And jobs you won't believe. 
There's sterilising the bottles many, 
Then filling them with milk, 
There's changing poopy nappies, 
And stuff of that ilk. 
There's doing many loads of washing, 
Then bringing the same in, 
There's getting breakfast and lunch, 
I have no time for sin.                                                     

But alas, I have discovered much, 
Little ones to entertain, 
I have found a way to use the PC, 
It really hurt my brain. 
I cordoned off the PC area, 
Crawlers can't get out, 
I brought in lots of tous, 
I go until she shouts. 
So, I feel I have overcome my problem, 
I won't be so slack, 
I'll get back to Unwashed business, 
I'm just gald to be back. 
I saw the cucumbers vs beer thing, 
With no comment at all, 
But I don't think cucumbers go well with, 
Friday Night Football. 
I've seen many types of analysis, 
Conclusions I will not draw, 
But when you do an analysis look, 
At letters one through four. 
Confused? I mean the word analysis, 
I think they can be misleading, 
it's the first four letters of the word, 
That you should be reading. 
I also saw Night Owl, 
Having a go at a teacher, 
I'll let that one lie too, 
I won't be a poetic preacher.                                                     

There was also a period there, 
Where I couldn't get the board, 
I thought that something sinister, 
Had happened to this hoard. 
But, I'm pleased to say this, 
The board has evolved well, 
It's just so much better, 
May the old one burn in hell. 
Congrats to those responsible, 
I think Doom and others, 
Whoever worked so hard and well, 
Right on, sisters and brothers!                                                     

So, in short, I'm so glad, 
To have overcome my Boggle, 
I've lamented my absence from the board, 
And the messages to oggle. 
Good job, all, in the last week, 
The work is attractive, 
You must have been on steroids, 
You've all been so active!   

(try catching up on all those messages!)
