Every story has a beginning and an ending. Sadly the ending in this case is 
the start of the story, and I'm not Irish. We have had numerous years of being on the receiving end of Lion John Matic's fine sessions. His research and humour are unmatched, and there are precious few who have managed to escape his grip on our pockets. His dalliance with the DG Elect Lion Dale Crawford didn't save his pocket either, so I don't know why he has such a wide smile on his face unless he was dobbing me in for some caper I was involved in. John chastised me when I stated that he was a "lousy" Tail Twister, nothing could be further from the truth, I was just giving him more ammunition to get his teeth into. Lion John you have set a bench mark that is going to be difficult to surpass. Now it is your turn to be on the receiving end of "Leonora's" gaping mouth.
2011 - 2012 and we "welcome?" a new Tail Twister. This Lion with divine help from above will try to reek havoc upon us lesser souls. So why don't we welcome him with a little verse to mark the occasion.
Old King Cole Poem.
Old King Cole was a merry old soul, and a merry old soul was he;
He called for his pipe in the middle of the night
And he called for his fiddlers three.
Every fiddler had a fine fiddle, and a very fine fiddle was he;
Oh there's none so rare as can compare
With King Cole and his fiddlers three.
In Humour: In the 1970's, the American comedian George Carlin offered this alternative, and now somewhat altered to suit the occa
sion.

sion. Old Lion Brian Cole was a merry old soul, and a merry old soul was he; He called for his pipe, and he called for his bowl - I guess we all know about Old Lion Brian Cole.
Any guesses as to who gets tuned up over this? Maybe we should all welcome him with a rendition of the well known rhyme.
