SIR - Sidmouth Olympics 2012
When they make slouching in the chair
An Olympic sport, I’ll be there.
When they give out a cup,
For refusing to get up, I’ll win it every year.
When they hand out the gold
For sitting by the fire, I’ll leave the others in the cold.

And when I’m asked to sign my name
In Sidmouth’s hall of fame (The Knowle),
I won’t go.
How beautiful it is to do nothing,
And then to rest afterward!
