Don't ask how but we ended up chatting about tongue twisters during lunch and I came out with the one below which my friend's mother taught us when we were teenagers. She got it wrong and started laughing and the more she laughed, the more wrong she got it! I was surprised that no one here had heard it before so here goes:

Note: SFW unless you get it wrong!

I'm not a pheasant plucker, I'm a pheasant plucker's mate. I'm only plucking pheasants 'cos the pheasant plucker's late

Were you affected by the geomagnetic storms this past weekend?
Communication disruptions, electrified pipes, random unexplained blue-screens in Windows - the list of effects is terrifying.
