School yard ditty

[Hall]

Was at work the other day and for some reason as I passed a fellow worker filling out his work sheet I remembered part of this old ditty. Strange how the old fart mind works. Any way it goes like this. It was a dark and stormy night. The dunny light was dim. I heard a splash I heard a cry. Oh no some one has fallen in. Now is there more to this?

It goes on and on, in various forms. No, sorry, none are springing to mind.

I remember something like it but it went:

It was a dark and stormy night
and the captain said to his mate-
"Give us a story, mate"
and this it the tale he told...

It was a dark and stormy night...

and then you just repeat the whole thing over and over again

T'was a dark and stormy night and the shipmate said to the captain, 'ere cap'n tell us a story.........and the captain began "T'was a dark and.........."

That's the pommie version I grew up with

[RichardK]

The night was dark and stormy..

the lavatory light was dim..

there was a crash..

and a hell of a splash...........







Good God..............................He's fallen in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I remember that, I'm sure that's all there was to it.

The other one that comes to mind,

One fine day n the middle of the night,
two soldiers came out to fight,
back to back they faced each other,
drew there swords and shot each other.

Or words to that effect, Easo

It was a dark and stormy night,
The dunny light was dim.
I heard a crash
and then a splash..
By gosh - he's fallen in...



and...


On a bright day in the middle of the night,
2 dead men got up to fight.
Back to back they faced each other,
drew their swords and shot each other.
A deaf policeman heard the noise
and came to arrest these 2 bad boys.
If you dont believe this lie is true.
As the blind guy - he saw it too...
