Love it. ;D ;D ;D ;D

FSN, a fine man of renown,
Watched the clock with a bit of a frown.
"A Centurion please..
Look, I'm down on my knees,
But I'm sure you'll just all put me down."

Cheers - Phil.

All I want is a tank to use
A centurion  will life my blues
With tracks and guns (no sprues)
Oh wouldn't it be luvverly
I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

On the forum of dear old Pendraken
fsn didn't want elves or kraken.
Nothing with legs,
for Centurion begs
not an Albatross, Camel or Staaken


Gods it's hard finding rhymes for Pendraken :)

Keep up the good work and dont slacken and I'm sure you'll find one
If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

But that doesn't rhyme...  :(

Well it does for me.  :-[

But to be honest, a vague notion that the pronunciation might be different for some did cross my mind.

Is it too late to change your name to Pendrakken, then?    O:-)

I'm still holding out for a name change to Pendurion.

That'd make rhymes very simple.

What rhymes with Pendurion then ? ;) ;D
Cheers - Phil

According to my rhyming dictionary: turion, durian, Ben-Gurion, tellurian, silurian, decurion, Arthurian, Khachaturian and holothurian.

I may have missed one or two.

You realise that to be a true epic all poetry should be written in Anglo-Saxon. All together now....  :D
When you realise we're all mad, life makes a lot more sense.

Lord Kermit of Birkenhead

Me thinks you refer to S.A.G.A, not sagas - epic Scandinavian literature, normally staring troubled female detectives.

FSN's SAGA

translated from the Old Norse ... or maybe translated by an old nurse .... whatever :)

In Pendraken's forum bold,
tales of fearless warrior are told,
silver tongued as any serpent,
made himself Centurion's servant.
Marching to the site,the forum hosting,
armed himself with many a posting,
pleading for his captive master
to be released by wicked caster.
Endlessly invited and implored
intervention by our Dark Lord.
Bereft, beleaguered and forlorn,
ever enduring posters scorn.
Gainst scorn, soft words his shield.
By humble humour armoured in the field.
The deadly blade of his persistance
slowly scything down resistance.
With Centurions soon to be released,
what topic now will stir the beast?
