Just send us the bits that make him unique. We'll weave them into verses.

  1. The fixing legend

    One joke told every year for forty years: the one that never gets old.

A worked example

Meet Nigel, our example uncle

Nigel isn't a real customer, but many uncles fit his description. This shows the kind of detail families send us.

Nigel

Allotment king, quiz night ringer, forever joke teller.

  • Fixed every bike I've ever owned
  • Claims credit for every goal I've ever scored
  • Runs the allotment like a tiny farm
  • Always the first to buzz in at quiz night
  • Tells the same Christmas joke every year for forty years

What his niece told us

It's my uncle's birthday. He's fixed every bike I've ever owned and taken credit for every goal I've ever scored, on the grounds that he 'taught me everything'. Allotment king, quiz night ringer, teller of one joke per Christmas for forty years. Same joke. A song for the man who never misses a birthday himself.

Verse 1

There's oil beneath his fingernailsFrom every bike I've ever ownedSpun the wheels and fixed the chainsNever left me stranded, never once aloneAnd when I scored that scrappy goalHe'll swear it down, he'll take the bow"I taught you everything you know"Uncle Nigel, take it now

Chorus

Happy birthday to the allotment kingRows of leeks all standing in a lineHappy birthday, let the quiz team singHe knows every answer, every timeHere's to you, Nigel, hip hoorayMan who never misses his own day

Verse 2

Same joke every Christmas DayForty years and counting stillWe all know the punchline nowBut we laugh because we always willHe'll tell you plain, he'll tell you straightCorrect the ref, correct the scoreHe was there for every birthday cakeAnd he'll be there for a few more

Chorus

Happy birthday to the allotment kingRows of leeks all standing in a lineHappy birthday, let the quiz team singHe knows every answer, every timeHere's to you, Nigel, hip hoorayMan who never misses his own day

Bridge

So raise a glass of homemade wineFrom whatever grew this yearTell the joke one more timeWe're glad that you are hereFor every puncture, every prizeEvery "I taught you everything"We see it now, plain in your eyesIt was love, the whole time, that you were bringing
