Mad over Fifties Club

[ladyalex]

The Club is now Open.

Welcome one and all to our club.

Many thanks to Mamyalynne for stepping into the breach last week whilst lordalex and I gallivanted and capered. (Or did she step into the breech ? As long as she did not step into the breeches)
I see from the minutes that all went well and there were no unauthorised visits to the wine cellar...

As the excitement of Midsummer Day begins to evaporate, it is to be hoped that all Members are re-invigorated for the dark nights now looming ahead of us.

So far, prizes accumulated for tonight's raffle are:

Half a tin of Duraglit (most of the pre-used bits removed)

Four candles

Packet of five two finger Kitkats


No doubt the usual sumptuous array of drinks and nibbles will arrive shortly

[alexanderd]

Havent a clue LadyA perhaps it is amnesia! Daisy try comf(short for comfortable)

[carmalee]

ladyalex - harris is my major domo

[ladyalex]

Gosh, you are lucky to have major domo, carmalee.
I think I had a minor one once, but I can only dream of a major one.

[Mamyalynne]

Oh is it Dominoes time already??

[ladyalex]

Hope so.

Fives and threes anyone ?

[DaisyNonna]

Is it free? Perhaps not just now. I prefer not to mix meds. Don't want to walk into the moat on my way home.You never know what is lurking. Okay at mixing drinks though. Would hate to see the Krusha wasted. That colour never keeps.

[carmalee]

can't get the staff nowadays - Harris is good but by gad Smithers knew how to rattle Madams's feathers

[ladyalex]

Was that Smithereens ?

We had trouble with him ....I'm sure Mamya will remember. She had such a bother with the dustpan and brush when he was employed here.

[Mamyalynne]

I think Smither's reputation is well known about these parts

[alexanderd]

Which parts are we talking about now Mamya?

[carmalee]

and
the Trumps spoke so highly of him

[ladyalex]

Cards now ? I thought it was dominoes...

[alexanderd]

have we had the riffle yet? Cant wait to get that duraglit

[ladyalex]

Sorry, bit remiss as to the raffle tonight.

If everyone is ready, I'll get on with it.
(when I remember what my prize is going to be).

[Mamyalynne]

I want the welly scraper, but............... Nooo - he has only nicked the wellies back, Sob!! The bounder.

[alexanderd]

and with one bound he was free

[ladyalex]

It's the old old story, Mamya. Once they get what they want they drop you like a hot brick and make off with your wellies.
Shocking, but true.


Anyway, tonight's raffle is number:
