[giveup]

O Lie in King, O Lie in King,
You are so good at answering,
Can you help me with this query
I've looked and looked, my brain is weary----
Cant think of anything else that rhymes ( weary brain)The question is 'What products commercials have included Joan Collins, Larry Hagman and Burt Reynolds'
Many thanks Giveup.( possibly the next Poet Laureate)

................ in case Mr King is busy .................. I think it might be British Gas :o)

[mumof3angels]

Well I'm not Lie in King but I think the answer is British Gas.

[mumof3angels]

[Lie-in King]

"O giveup, giveup, your words are kind,
Your answer, howe'er won't come to mind!
I'm certain someone knows what you need,
I'm afraid my brain has gone to seed!"

After all the trouble on this site today, that's really cheered me up! Lol & thanks! :-))

[giveup]

Thank you all very much How about the poem!!!

Does this mean an answer to 88 you've got
Because I have searched google an awful lot
I've looked at every Hollies hit there is
But still I am in a bit of a tizz
If its not a quiz you do
then below here is the clue
A Hollies song for double glazing
give me an answer and youre amazing

[Lie-in King]

This is a quiz I do not know,
But if you'll allow me, I'll have a go.
(The theme eludes me...though)
But do you like "Look Through Any Window"?

Good grief...

[giveup]

I've got look through any window for no 88 can't remember where I got it but it took ages to find.Have you got no76, the female pop singer who turned down a multi million dollar deal to appear in diet pepsi commercials in 1989.How about Lie in King hasnt got the quiz but still has a go at the answers.

[giveup]

Budding poets society on here today. This site is soooo slow driving me mad

[smouse]

I agree that song seems to be just right
But I have searched for proof day and night
76 is the other one I cannot find
does anyone else have an answer in mind

I agree about this site being slow - its obvious affecting my brain lol

[Lie-in King]

"Look Through Any Window" is in my "British Hit Singles & Albums" - entered chart 2nd Sept, 1965 & got to No 4 (Parlophone R 5322)

What's the clue for 76 - & what's the theme?! :-)

Oh sorry - "Now I've asked a Q of you,
I wonder what you'll choose to do..."

Refills vodka drip & starts "Dread Poets' Society"

[giveup]

the theme is commercial break (T V adverts) No. 76 What female pop singer turned down a multi million dollar deal to appear in Diet Pepsi commercials in 1989.

If the answer to this you can find
I'll share with you my spag bol and red wine(d)

[Lie-in King]

For you I'd like to post this link
And hope that it will make you think.
I'd love some pasta really quickly -
I like the sauce made very thickly!

This has got to stop...

[tinkie]

Your spag bol is nearly ready
with all this attention you must be heady
I see other people are offering you food
i am upset and in a mood
knocking back the vodka and tonic
at this rate I will forget to put the mixer in it
so get over here and get your dinner
and then I will be the winner

[tinkie]

sorry Lie-in king I know you said this had to stop
but I couldn't resist it

[Lie-in King]

tinkie, tinkie, your food's so nice,
I just thought I'd eat it twice!
Please don't be mad, or even angry -
Put down the vodka - I'll bring sangri(a)!

See, it's only getting worse,
All these posts composed of verse -
Like Rupert Bear I now do sound
'Cos a brand new bottle I've just found!

I'm off for an hour or so soon...

...Stop cheering, you lot! :-)

[giveup]

The pasta's on
The wine is poured (slurp)
The sauce made to your taste
My only hope about this meal.
It dont taste like wallpaper paste

Sorry about that.
Have posted this again on Slow Bank, but it looks like it has to be her although there is another question that relates to her.
Many thanks for all your help Giveup

[tinkie]

Thank you giveup for taking over your inbox, but it has been a lot of fun, it's been ages since I have written in verse

[giveup]

You're welcome just cooking the spag bol. Lie in King has'nt turned up .too late now ,bottle empty.

[smouse]

But Madonna and pepsi are another clue
would she really be the answer to two
And then there's the problem of curly wurly
Think I'll stop and got to bed early

Thanks one and all for this bit fun
Thought the humorous day on here were done
Need to remember a fellow quizzer can be a friend
A special one if these answers you send
