This is the start of the Somerset Talk Limerick Compeition that will net one lucky winner a Somerset CCC one day shirt signed by all the team that won the C&G Trophy. With Somerset in the one day form they currently enjoy, this might be one piece of memorabilia that could become a priceless antique!
So what do you need to do to enter? All you need to do is to make up a cricketing limerick, preferably Somerset-related, and email it to: editor@somersettalk.co.uk, Alternatively, post it on the messageboard of the site for all to admire. I will judge the efforts myself and the winner gets a fine piece of Somerset kit.
By way of a poor starting point, I have had a rather lame stab myself:
There was a young man called Trescothick,
of the English he was the first pick,
He took on Akhtar,
and whacked him so far,
he was asked to stop taking the mick!
Best of luck and no limit to number of entries. The finest selection will be posted at a later date with mid-July the approx deadline.
