Mad Over 50's Club now open

[Mamyalynne]

Good evening members new and old, once more I am left in the lurch - I mean in charge as the Aristo's have toddled off to see some prestingdig... er pestergating er Magic Show.

The Aga has been well used today and arrayed on the long buffet table in the short gallery are amongst other things, a beautiful Roast Gammon joint (do carve as you require), some tasty Tandoori Chicken skewers with a Raita dip. All the usual nibbles and Tailcocks are there also.

This week's guest tipple is 'Magic Wand!' a truly amazing concoction and perfect accompaniment to the Gammon.

For the raffle I have;
2 cards of Kirby grips
6 Playing cards (all jokers)
Half a jar of Branston pickle
A dozen Liquorice teabags.

So welcome all, settle in and chat.

[Mamyalynne]

Just don't go too near the edge, remember last time, we have to get Alex in the rowing dinghy to get you out.

[Lie-in King]

Well, it is a very pleasant evening. I'll just pop down & make sure it's been cleared of old bikes, trolleys, boots & any other unsightly staff

[Lie-in King]

Oops, slip of the mind^ - *stUff...

Hello everyone. Just got back from a birthday party. All Indian food, delicious. I couldn't eat my onion baji so I put it in a doggy bag and brought it for the buffet table.
For the ruffle I have got two safety pins, a crochet hook with the size worn off and a ball of wool which the cat has been playing with.
I would like to congratulate DT on the magnificent poem he wrote. Is that what you call blank verse DT? Some of the words were absolutely wonderful - if only I knew what they meant.

[DTCwordfan]

blank mind I think.....pickled in grape juice....thanks though starbuckone.

[Mamyalynne]

Maj, I resemble your remark. us workers try our best you know.

Welcome Star, do have a 'Magic Wand!' and a slice of hog, or are you full?

[ttfn]

i know a poem, off by heart, Star, but it is shorter than DT's

[slinky.kate]

dont worry mamya my hero will look after me i'm sure,i think i heard someone say al fresco is down there,if we got hold of the dinghy we could go for a sail in the sunset

[slinky.kate]

d t i hate your poem cause you never mentioned my name,or last week either,so there?

[DaisyNonna]

No point in asking can he ro. Much better to go for a sale instead.

[DTCwordfan]

wasnt here last week slinky kate, however.........

[starone]

I am full mamya but I will have a Magic Wand please. Wonder what sort of spells it will weave.
Kate, I agree, it is just too awful to be ignored. I suppose his excuse will be he couldn't mention everyone, someone had to be left out. I vote we chuck him in the moat - see how he likes that. Perhaps that will make him remember us in future. Wait until he has had a few more of those Magic Wands and he will be easier to handle.

[Lie-in King]

Would you mind if we stayed on dry land, kinky? I've been known to have trouble with rigging & rowlocks...

[DTCwordfan]

Today she is just our AB's Kate
She’s no doubt her hubbie’s lover and mate
But there will come a day
When he’s passed away
She’ll be known as Slinky Kate the Great

[starone]

ttfn - does that mean your poem cannot be repeated on this thread? Or are you just boasting that you know it off by heart?

[Mamyalynne]

Oh dear Maj are your rowlocks playing up again? I shall get my trolley then, step into Matron's office.

Star, I have made a new batch of Magic Wnads! do help yourself.

[Lie-in King]

Please excuse me kinky, it seems I have an appointment...

Please warm your hands this time, mamya & I think we can dispense with the novelty stethoscope...

[slinky.kate]

thank you d t .(i'm making a play for his maj.shhhh)

[Mamyalynne]

My hands are always warm and had no intention of using novelties, unless you would prefer it?

[Lie-in King]

"w-nads", mamya? Please lie on the couch, while I consult my Freud...
