Mad over Fifties Club

[ladyalex]

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.

[ladyalex]

Sounds as though you've got the hang of it , Alexanderd.

DT...please, no more of the frogspeak...I've just had a fortnight of it ....that's enough for another year.

[alexanderd]

I said Scottish not French DT

[ladyalex]

Alba..you saucy minx!

[ladyalex]

Thank you Alex, my hero!

[DTCwordfan]

I resided in the land of the kilted Gibsons for several years, Ma'am and am well versed in their idiosyncracies.

[alexanderd]

Is the riffle to be drawn soon I want the beret

[DaisyNonna]

Oooh! How to make your own wallpaper paste when the DIY shops are shut?

[alexanderd]

Daisy have you had too many of Mamyas tailcocks?

[albaqwerty]

Hehe apologies LadyA (well, it tickled me, and probably few others but that's another story and for below stairs, not up here in the greater drawing room)


Alex, could I interest you in sitting beside me next week and sampling some single and double malts? That way, neither of us would have to bother about brushing up on Scots or even English? :D

[starone]

Was that awesome or grewsome alba?

[alexanderd]

Alba I shall consider your offer and accept with alacrity or should that be elasticity?

[ladyalex]

Too much information , alexanderd.

[DaisyNonna]

Not yet Alex. Still working on it (or them) mmm. Luscious.

[DTCwordfan]

I shall depart these fair shores for the hammock north of the border from here.....leaving you dreaming of quaiches, drams and wee nips.....

'Night ter y'all, yer wee aluvvin beesties.....

[ladyalex]

Kilted Gibsons ?
That's a new one on me......

[ladyalex]

Night night DT, sleep well.
See you next week for a wee deoch an dorus

[Mamyalynne]

Night DT and thanks for your company

[alexanderd]

Night DT drop in any time, the moat is forever needing cleaning and as Ladya says in my present state of health I am not always capable

[albaqwerty]

I'll prtect you Alex, 'Eaven knows what could be brewing in the moat over this coming week.

Star, it might have been a bit of both (I can be greedy at times!)

[starone]

Bit tired tonight so I think I'll have to say goodnight to you all and go to bed. Thanks for the fun. See you all tomorrow. (unless I get raptured or did I read that wrong and it was ruptured)
