"Indeed and indeed" I'm sorry to say our intervention might be so construed ... (which is perhaps a promising line for a future quatrain or should that be quintain - woooops wandering out of me depth 
) Nevertheless, like you, am itching to pitch in! 
At least we'll be able to confer and compare after the event!
A commitment to Mod'nAdminlyness: I understand that r-e-s-i-s-t-a-n-c-e *i - s* f-u-t-i-l-e.
I shall not be starchy, nit pic, patronize, commit misandry, be economical with the facts or be a pedant, neither shall I whine. I shall endeavour to abstain from gratuitous point-scoring off the comments of other Mods or Administrators and also from engendering a culture of BLAME, remembering too to give the benefit of the doubt. Everything in my power will be done to achieve a modest post count & share my smileys, sources & avatars,

Oh Tru, you have put poor Ion between a rock and a hard place there.
This is the Adaline thread - if he does a complete limerick he will be ot, and if he adds more than one line someone will tell him off for being greedy!

When Ironeyes met Tru
There was a great to do
While dining in Brussels
He showed off his muscles
Actually Ion I didnt mean anything in particular with the discretion is the better part of valour line, it just sprang to mind when considering that completing a limerick that includes two such august personalities should perhaps be approached with a modicum of caution

Yes, I had noticed and wondered how you did it but thought it was a mod. thing! Didnt realise you could edit after sending.
Ok, just tested , now I have got it. Meanwhile anyone who dares can take their choice of lines.

Thrilling though both they may be
To cast the pitch wider's my plea
Let's write of things new
Though mind now not blue!
Enough said of Tru and IE.
