The Club is now Open
Good evening and welcome everyone.
How wonderful it is to return to dear old Blighty after a short sojourn in foreign parts.
Lordalex and I have had a restful holiday but we are always glad to return home to roost in our own home which has been so lovingly looked after by our ancient retainers.
The wine cellar seems a little depleted, but worry not, dear friends, we are expecting a new shipment very soon, so no need to hold back on the tailcocks.
I do hope that all went well during our absence and that there were no incidents involving the emergency services. (I have not had time to access the minute book.)
We have brought back with us several treats for the raffle:
A string of garlic
A stripey jersey
A beret
A tin of escargots (within date)
I look forward to tonight's talk, which I believe to be entitled :
'Lancashire Peelers, what are they for ?'
or was it
'Lancashire Heelers, what are they ?'
Time will tell, no doubt.
Anne no, Oz sister is not with me she is staying with my big sis, more room in her house. Alba, had a lovely time thankyou, please help yourself to cake and try one of mamys new tailcocks, it will counteract the sweetness
The tomatoes get 'done' in hot water to get the skin off and mashed to bits with the tinned tuna
add a dash of brown sauce (It's not nothing to do with Izal, honest!!)
Thank goodnes you have incarcerated the Elf. Whenever he looks at me I feel guity.
The firemen were fun, especially the one with red hair, a cheeky smile and Irish accent.
Could we maroon the castle cat up a tree? Just a thought. Perhaps another tailcock instead.
OOps, sorry Suezy, forgot to welcome you ...welcome!
Do not sell yourself short, Alba. I'm sure you can lick your finger just as well as Nigella licks hers. And I bet you've got similar cardies to hers, don't we all ?
I've rescued tonight's guest spearer from the most, all he babbled was
