Mad Over Fifties Club

[nungate]

The club has moved premises and can now be found at Nungate Towers. Take the A1 heading north and make a right turn at Giggleswick and carry on for 2 miles the gates to the Towers are right in front of you. Chubb, the keeper of the keys will be on hand to guide you to the club entrance.

For your delight and delectation this evening, we have an interesting array of goodies, sundry volly vonts, canapes and a humungous cottage pie (made from a real cottage) This evening's tailcock will be the Equinoctal Gale, guaranteed to put the "wind" in your sails.

A warm welcome awaits all who dare enter......

good evening nungate and I presume the QoM is lurking...

I was just thinking of heading to the Inn...the Skull & Cross Legs for a pint of foaming ale after playing being a bear, eating my mater's raw salmon.

Is there a fiffle?

If so:

3 fish hooks
Flies
1 broken reel
1/2 a rod for the back
The Yorkshire Guide to Lousy Fishing
The Ilkley Fish and Chip Guide
The Otley Other Fish and Chip Guide
The Bradford Bengali Curry Guide
Half a cup of tea from Betty's.

Re Betty's - only brought it up as my father in law's name is on it somewhere. I'll butt out now as I find this MOFC really confusing as it goes too fast for me! Have a nice night all.

[DTCwordfan]

[humbersloop]

tony, tony, bless

[nungate]

The Tapster is servng drinks in the Great Hall, up the stairs and it's the door straight ahead Tony, Igor, the ancient faithful family retainer will be along shortly if anyone wishes to divest themselves of their coats, cloaks, broomsticks etc. for interment in suitable places of concealment to be returned to their rightful owners upon the arrival of the coaches at midnight.
The rofl will be drawn as usual, but it will be held during half time at the Camp Nou>

[sherrardk]

(DT - story goes that when Betty's was a pub (mirror was behind the bar then) the barmaid gave the service men her diamond engagement ring to etch their names on to the mirror. The mirror is downstairs now by the toilets (or it was when we visited eons ago).

[petal54]

no bottles in the hot tub

I know I'm not over fifty (far from it) but I have one simple request. If you insist on fishing can you please refrain from using the aquarium which is just off the conservatory, you might scare the fish. Thank you :)
