Mad over fifties club

[ladyalex]

The Club is now Open

Welcome one and all to our wonderful club.

This will be the last time in 2011 that I shall be able to attend, but , of course, anyone else is welcome to open up on 24th and 31st Dec.

We are all agog here at the clubhouse as the son-and-heir is due to arrive home on Monday for his Christmas furlough. lordalex can scarcely contain himself. He has been re-arranging the whiskies for days now...or at least that's what he says he has been doing...he has certainly been sleeping well lately.

Our raffle this week has some festive prizes already:

Six strands of pink tinsel (hardly rusted at all)
Five golden coloured tree baubles (no hooks)
Four candy canes (sell-by 2003)
Three sprigs of holly. (With berries but very prickly)
Two sets of fairy lights (Worked last year but some lights seem to be a bit flickery now)
And a large bunch of mistletoe.


Sadly I am still somewhat under the weather due to the dratted virus and may leave early again. So I shall take this opportunity to wish all the MOFC members, past , present, future, those thinking of joining, those lurking and those irritated by us (you know who you are) all the Compliments of the Season. Here's looking forward to another year of fun and laughter in 2012!

yum! certainly hottt,them ther chilli-dogs,though I fear too many may add to the windy conditions.

[ladyalex]

I'm sure that will not be a problem for one of your ladylike status, petals

[petal54]

I fear I'm none too lady like as far as bottom burps go,or any other sort!

Greetings to all, am I late? I bring some sleigh bells without their jingle for the woffl. I have left the llama at home tonight and am travelling with the sleigh and reindeer, will it be alright to leave them in the stable Milady? They are very tame and their names are Sven and Irmgard (any residue they leave behind will be beneficial to your lovely roses come Spring).

[ladyalex]

I am sure that is not true, Petal. With a name like yours I am sure that you are the very epitome of a lady.

I'm afraid my virus has got the better of me again,so good night all.

Have a wonderful Xmas and a Happy, healthy and prosperous New year.
See you all again on 7th January, if we're spared.
Love to all.

[nungate]

Kate, I have some glue in my reticule, will that be of any use to repair your angel wing?

[DTCwordfan]

Looks like a roll-me-over on the raffle items this week....

[slinky.kate]

nungate that would be great,could you do it for me its a family heirloom and when i was putting it on the tree i fell of the ladder and broke the fairy,so it is looking a bit bare.

[nungate]

Try not to get any on your fingers - this glue sticks anything
