ODE TO OUR REGIONAL COUNCILLORS Regional Councillors, leaving the conscientious at home, Headed off for a retreat at Pineatone. For two days and a night, With security tight, They closeted themselves aIl alone. The reason for this political faction, Was to erase ail the local distraction. While their minda rejuvenate, They'll determine our fate, Whilst enjoying the special attractions. We constituents should not make a fusa, Regional business they're bound to discuss. But it's against every rule, To 'talk ahop' in the pool, Juat remember, they did ail thia just for us. Durham surely has places with class, That could house aIl the Regional brasa, And juat to begin, Why not the Holiday Inn? For holding Regional seminars en masse. The tab for this jaunt you are paying, And if you listen to what they are saying, "Twas aIl work they profes, But its really our guesa, That our Regional Counicillors were -'playing'.
