You can get by with most anything, 'cause most think you're too old to know any better! *smiles* [bodytext] =>

"TEA AT COBBLE HOUSE MANOR"

Life can be boring for old ladies sometimes.
But our teas are exciting, as we relate our crimes!
I'm inviting you to our Cobble House Manor.
We tell true stories that will give you a seisure.

Most old woman are called old witches you see
So for us I made witch hats with points for tea.
Comfy are we, no one is allowed to put in their teeth.
Sounds funnier when we say, "Where's the Beef?"

Beth on the left, uses her hands most always
She relates tales of her private school days.
Slid down the slide, while turned upside down.
Split her britches, had to sit there 'til sundown!

Connie, the toothless wonder next to her
She, with husband, remodeled a house to endure.
He slipped, fell through the livingroom ceiling
Strattling a rafter, sure it was his ruining.....
15 months later they had a son, no fooling!

Nancy, next, is so sweet and demur.......
Perfect her life, no mistakes, until she couldn't hear.
Beautiful matinee, she was asked to sit in the rear.
She left to get her beer, got lost, returned for last cheer!

Edith is ornery, tells the funniest story of all.
She's the "dare-devil" with lots of gall.
When 93, a $5 bet, streaked a flower show entertainment.
Won 1st place prize for best "Dried Arrangement!

I would imagine people must think we old
ladies have no fun.
Come to one of our teas, there's plenty of action.
A total of 280 years we lived between we four.
Guaranteed, you'll laugh 'til you're sore!
