Jan's poem on a tablecloth may be a bit fragile, But maybe my fingers will prove to be more agile. So below are the words of his great creation, Congratulations and thanks to a Bard for the Nation.

An Ode to Paul

Upon this island of Levkas

Lives a very special man

Who has a "really weird" accent

He comes from Birmingham

Amongst the local gentry

His name is superstar

Cos every time he visits

He brings a brand new car

  A black one or a white one

With wheels of chromium steel

The only thing you'll never see

Is Sue behind the wheel

At Concrete Bill's he has his space

And arrives each night with a smiley face

He drives home each night sober

From January to October

And so to Paul the Birthday Boy

I hope today is full of joy

With all your mates and a full wine glass

Happy Birthday Paul, we think you're class
