August Bank Holiday

We’re going to the seaside
On Monday!
But not on Bank Holiday Monday
We always stay at home on bank holidays
We are lucky
We can go to the seaside whenever we like.
Unlike the majority
Who have to fight the traffic jams
And vie for a spot on the beach
Queue for fish and chips
Queue for ice cream cornets
Pay through the nose for parking the car
Coming home
Needing a holiday!
