Tom's come home!

The toys were getting restless...


so I made a new plan, Stan.
Just slipped out the back, Jack
and built a new toy, boy.
Please come in and see my new boy...


 and have a cup of tea.


There was a young table called Tom,          
With four legs he was big and strong.
I've been wanting to rent,
Such a fine looking gent,
To trade craft for ever so long.

He's beginning to look rather grand,
To dress him I needed a hand.
He stands three foot high,
With a glint in his eye
And straddles a metre of land.

He's wearing stuff to impress.
'Something More Exciting' made his dress.
So come have a laugh,
At our silly old craft,
Before he gets in a mess!










I hope you enjoyed your visit, please come again soon.

Crafty ways make Tom grow!
