Have You Had Yours Yet?


Have You Had Yours Yet?

The news is bad, bordering on tragic,
Really awful - in fact it’s hit me for six:
The announcement went out this morning:
They’ve had to suspend making our Weetabix!

Seems they’ve run out of British wheat,
Due to last summer’s bad weather,
And they can’t make it from inferior wheat –
Well, you could have knocked me down with a feather!

In the mean-time the production-line’s closed,
Except for some Mini-Bites and Oatibix,
Which really ain’t the same thing at all,
And it looks as if we’re all left in a fix!

So they’ve resorted to importing some wheat,
For the first time in as long as they can remember,
Till they can some more British stuff,
But they won’t know that till September!
