Mad Over 50's Club now open

[Mamyalynne]

Good evening everyone - as her Ladyship is otherwise engaged, it falls to me to welcome you here tonight. A slight upturn in the weather has prompted a most summery buffet with an assortment of crustless sandwiches, various fillings to suit all tastes too. Voltra vons it goes without saying also make an appearance....for dessert Strawberries loom large, a wonderful Pavlova with lashings of cream and of course the more simple Strawberry and cream combo for the less adventurous, A large flagon of spiced Pimms for a refreshing boost and a brand new Tailcock - the Murray, a well practised recipe showing signs of improvement , may well develop fully soon but still drinkable in it's immature state.

For the Rofl

6metres of netting
White line paint
3 shuttlecocks (bald)
7 Croquet hoops ( never was any good at sport)


Apologies already in from Excel

although i'll not be at tonight's MOFC (as previously stated) because of the early night i must have - on account of tomorrow.
i would still like to donate some prizes for the blaffle.

so i have sent to the manor - via courier - the following:-

my recently expired car tax disc
a klingon-english dictionary
the dressing from my arm, used after i gave blood last week
dvd of 'the shawshank redemption' (i had two)
used question sheets from my last quiz night.

hope the evening goes well, and give my regards to all attendees, please.

So settle in and have a natter.

Drat - all high field when I was low - I had my lucky pulling pants on and all ...

[Mamyalynne]

Sorry Dave, better luck next time.

Now that we have a happy Butler who can speak funny, may I prevail to ask that he goes to attend his outdoor and security duties as darkness has rapidly crept upon us.

[Lie-in King]

Alas Mr dave, I fear you inadvertently removed them along with your cycling leathers. Have you checked under the sawrong? Perhaps you've a loss of feeling due to the cold?

[DaisyNonna]

And I thought I had lost my marbles!

[Lie-in King]

Thank you Matron. I shall return after checking the frog on his hook & that all is well within the croc's den.

The refilling trough has been, er...refilled.

speak funny indeed, meh

[Mamyalynne]

Please no one forget the buffet, the pavlova is beginning to wilt a bit.

[nungate]

Are your marbles in a pretty jar Daisy? I saw some in the vestibule as I entered - I carry mine in my reticule

[flump1]

Good night one and all, I shall take my leave with a wonderfully warm fluffy poncho having had a most enjoyable evening. I wish everyone well , take care till we meet next week. x

[Mamyalynne]

Did you win a prize DT??

[Mamyalynne]

Apart from Bard of the year of course.

[nungate]

Alas DT, there are only sheep near Nungate Towers we hear them most days. Though there is an Ostrich farm in Menorca on the road heading down to Es Migjorn and Sant Tomas. My little band Carlito, Alberto and Spot were all adopted

[DTCwordfan]

must be waiting for the gran Euro enchilada,,,,,,,to but some form of French Chateau or Espagnol Castilla to invite ABers.

[DTCwordfan]

i did not know you had Spanish connections, nungate! It explains the fondness for the Peruvian sheep.

[lady-janine]
