Mad over Fifties Club

[ladyalex]

The Club is now Open.

Good evening and welcome, everyone.

As the weather has been a little kinder to us of late, the clocks are due to change tonight and the Dark Blues have won the Boat Race, perhaps there is some truth to the rumour that Spring is on its way.
However, the nights are still a little nippy, so gather round our cosy hearth for another Club Night.

Drinks and nibbles will no doubt appear shortly and we can only hope that our trusty Matron will again excel herself with a new tailcock recipe. (Last week's amazing creation, the 'Lunar surprise@ lingers firmly in the memories and possibly also the livers of the members who attended last week.)

The raffle cupboard seems to be bare, so presumably all items were won last week...is this a record ?

Here are my donations for this week's raffle:

A packet of cheese and onion crisps . (Hardly flattened at all.)
A small tin of Mint Balls. (No, not Uncle Joe's, they're for the raffle)
A Fair Isle pattern mitt. (Right hand .)

Please feel free to add to them.

[ladyalex]

As Kleiber is in Wales, I think we'd be better steering clear of the topic of sheep......

Damsons now, now you're talking.

[Kleiber]

In the garden, milady, in the garden!! Yes, mamy, the flowers are pretty and you can eat them, too.

Don't do the usquebaugh I am afraid so will let those in the knoe have their tipple, will stick to my Census Comet##

[ladyalex]

I prefer to stick to Maya's tailcocks on a Saturday night .
You know what you're in for with the likes of a Census Comet##

[Kleiber]

Laphroaig - now you're talking!

[ladyalex]

Night night petal, see you again next week. Good luck with the settee searching.

Laphroaig...yuk and double yuk. Might as well drink drain cleaner.

[DTCwordfan]

my thyropid does not need the iodine treatment, kleiber, one of the comets more than suffices that along with some of lady-jayne's sea salt from her abode deep on the most southerly peninsula of these fair islands, the Lizard.

[Kleiber]

Diolch, m'lady, for the comment about the sheep - we won't even mention what we do with haggis!

[DTCwordfan]

my thyroid does but hath a dose of Phosphorus in it (symbol P in the chenical table) - my apologies for my dislexier.

[Mamyalynne]

Night Petal, don't forget to do your clocks or you will meet yourself coming back before you have been.

[Kleiber]

I admit, both the Laphroaig & the haggis are acquired tastes, but when one is surrounded by sheep, haggis is quite a good option!!

[ladyalex]

Tis the haggis mating season at the moment. I saw a whole field of them the other day but sadly did not have my box brownie to capture the sight.
They have to be quite careful with their run-up as mostly their left legs are shorter than their right, but there are occasional rogue hagges with shorter rights than lefts and , as you can imagine, mayhem can ensue.

[DTCwordfan]

oh gawd, does that meaning outting out the barf receptacle twice tonight........

[ladyalex]

whispers < the meds, Mamya, the meds.....he's talking about phosphorus now, things could get fiery/>

[DTCwordfan]

you are so right, lady alex, and such haggi do not know their aszes from their pussiez, I am so told by my Scottish haggi shaggers.

[Mamyalynne]

I likes a Haggis pasty I do and the little legs are almost as good as pork scratchings a real high class tailcock accompaniment
