Mad over Fifties Club

[ladyalex]

The Club is now Open



Welcome one and all to our Jubilee Weekend Club .

As I am sure you will all have noticed, we have got the bunting out and the hall is totally jubilantly decked. The red white and blue theme has been continued with jubilation throughout the building and even the stables have been repainted puce (which is the colour we got when we mixed the red white and blue paints).
Members who wish to identify themselves as jubilarians may do so by signing the Big Book on the sideboard in the lower lesser grand ballroom.

Tonight's jubilar raffle so far has for prizes:


1 silver jubilee mug (slightly cracked)
1 golden jubilee tea towel (slightly washed out)
14 Union Jack flags (all full size)
6 red buttons
7 white gloves (some pairs)
8 blue berets (the hats, not the men)

Welcome Jumbo...so nice to see you again.

Would you care for some buns ? I'm sure we have red white and blue iced ones somewhere around.

Can anyone suggest how to help poor petal ? I do feel for her.

I'm afraid I must absent myself for a while now... the latest Swedish crime prog is on and I must have my fix.

life here in soggy somerset is usually so quiet,overwhelmed by the pomp & thingy

[DTCwordfan]

naturellement, ten, as long as it isn't a bucket.....watch that nungate when she arrives as she likes a barrel - and for gness, she won't have much on, apart from a basque or a cami.

Tenrec you are doing a great job, now my shawl is taken care of, I have no place to put my hardy rain bonnet. It remains draped over the croc's tail at present.

[tenrec]

Cripes, I forgot the crocodile. Am I safe in the cloakroom?

[albaqwerty]

petal come and sit here... I've a jug of the most delightful tailcocks and ac couple of glasses

[DTCwordfan]

a magic mushroom will keep him happy; he will be shuffling his 48 card pack....not an easy thing for a croc.

Good Evening Milady. Forgive me for my tardiness. I have been searching for the cad who stole my Fondant Fancy in 1953 and lo and behold I find him in your presence offering his ill gotten gains for your ruffle!
A tailcock in a pint glass if you please and a quiet corner in which to lick my wounds.

For the riffle: One bag of left over cement. Dried up.
Three broken paving slabs.
The cream puff I was landed with in 1953.

A bun and a flagon of tailcock would be most welcome, thank you.

I'm looking forward to watching the Flotilla on the Thames tomorrow.

[petal54]

most kind Alba,have taken my meds now,so calming down after the struggle with the suit

[flump1]

Tenrec , take a tailcock and a fish paste sandwich when you visit the croc and you will have a friend for life. Don't what ever you do engage either the croc or his cat in any game of chance.....they cheat.

[DaisyNonna]

ten, you are so organised, doing a great job. My cloak made friends with a shawl last week, gets a bit jealous if too close to cashmere. Something about borders? I trust your judgement.

[DTCwordfan]

aaahhh why sloopy and seadogg are not here......are they slave-masters/mistresses beating their rhythms out on the drum to the criminals, manacled and chained, rowing her Maj?

[tenrec]

Thank you for that tip flump. I only play solitaire, so that won't be a problem.

[tenrec]

I hope Sloopy and Seadogg are keeping away from Morecambe Bay. It is treacherous out there. I believe Morecambe is becoming like Pimlico.

[flump1]

Hi Daisy, my shawl is most friendly and if it becomes too much do tell and I will duly berate it.

[DTCwordfan]

full of Chinese restaurants?

[tenrec]

petal54, would you prefer your tailcock warm? Warming the cockles of your heart and all that.

[petal54]

our local Thai takeaway is run by people from Bengal

[nungate]

Good evening all. Apologies for my tardiness - the llama has been grounded owing to his gambling habit with the croc - I'v had to engage a coach and pair as the alpaca is on a day out to Drumnadrochit with the matchbook collecting society. I see the butler is missing again! To whom should I request my usual pail of tailcock? No barrels for me DT!! I resemble that remark!
