Quirky Family

My uncle Bill is very quirky,
His favourite food is roast beef jerky,
his brand new pool is green and murky!

My auntie Joan is just as weird,
She has to wash her father’s beard!

Every night she goes to bed,
And reads a book called Infrared Ted!

Just last week they went on vacation,
Only to find they had lost their location
And ended up sleeping at a petrol station!!

Then eventually they found their way back,
With lots of information in a gigantic stack!!

So if you think your family’s really weird,
I bet your auntie doesn’t wash people’s beards

But…if you have a great fear DON’T go near my cousin
Sophia!!!!!!!
