San Bernardhinault saved it for the last line and put up one of the best sentence scores of the week.

The crudity bonus had very little effect, but it was obvious that Sean of the Shed got the best of that side.
Great limericks all around! Now to come up with some idea for the next week.

Super stuff matt, really enjoyed this week. Shame I came in just too late for the first race of the five, but pleasantly surprised to finish anywhere other than bottom consequently.
Tanka are like haiku but with a bonus two lines – where the anglicised haiku is generally stereotyped as 5-7-5 syllables, tanka go 5-7-5-7-7. Which is a lot more forgiving in terms of poetic elbow room, and also a much harder formation to defend against.
