Story about Timbuktu, Tombouctou, Mali


A story I really like;

Story about Timbuktu (Tombouctou, Mali)

There were an Australian and a priest competing against each other.

Their scores were equal, so they had to create a verse about “Timbuktu”.

The priest began:

I was a father, all my life,
had no children, had no wife.
I read the Bible, through and through.
On my way to Timbuktu.

Then the Australian told his version:

When Tim and I to Brisbane went,
we met three ladies cheap to rent.
They were three and we were two,
so I booked one and Tim booked two!

Cheers!!
