One teenager was saying; "How cold it was....!"

Member of staff, suggested I jump off the balcony and swing off it!
I declined that offer, and I would give it a good poke instead!
Off to sit the square for a nibble and yak!
We saw our other friend go past in the car.
(It was too late for him to stop for a rabbit)
I thanked my friend for the cake.
