Mad Over Fifties Club

[Igor61]

My lady has asked me to open up the Towers for this evening as she is busy with the ossifers from the local constabulary, they are still looking into the matter of our missing moat. They have at least three suspects and they have found some clues a yellow marigold, a head gasket from a 1964 Cortina and a pile of plastic buckets.
Tonight's tailcock will be the "Arctic Blast" and the hot plate special is a Mince and dumpling pie a hearty warming dish (and my favourite), the pudding tonight is a steamed apple sponge pudding, you can have custard or cream with that (I like the custard)
Those ahem musical bampots that sit in the gallery will be spouting their usual nonsense (why we can't have good old fashioned rock and roll is quite beyond me) they are also threatening to inflict their version of Bon Jovi's greatest hits on us tonight ( oh spare us!)
I expect she (who must be obeyed) will organise a rofl when she finally gets rid of those ossifers (my money is on that suspicious character next door - he has a new water feature in his back yard)
The young mistress is still in her chambers but she will be along shortly (I like her best) she has organised ice skating down at the lake, and hot chocolate and marshmallows will be available down there later. The hot tub is bubbling away as usual and I had to trudge all the way up there with all the stuff that goes in that flippin' mini bar! I've lit the fires in the snug and in the vestibule. Belle has set all the necessary requisites in the retiring rooms ready for the members.

Welcome one and all
Just remember I'll be chucking you all out at midnight (I have my chains to polish!)

Right, just got back, one hour to do a ten mile round trip.
Igor another bucket for me if you please.

It would appear we like the same things Excel. Dr Who, very big in the Towers. I lost count of the times I saw the original Star Wars films - second trilogy not quite the same, Star Trek was fine but I preferred the Next Generation, and Voyager. Looking forward to the new Star Trek film though.
I could go on for hours about sci fi and such

[DaisyNonna]

I enjoy films but rarely go to the cinema. Like to have someone to discuss the film with afterwards. Apart from star trek, any favourites?

Russian dancing, slow, slow, quick, quick, slow......oh well, dancing was never one of my strong suits.....though I could think of something else which has a rhythm method.

[murraymints]

[Igor61]

[DaisyNonna]

Welcome back Tony. You seem to have missed the fun.

[DTCwordfan]

so it was slow, slow, quick, quick, slide out there, tony - should see the shots from W.Cumbria on the A595.........

[excelsior-1]

i'll take the opportunity now to say that i shall be away for a long weekend break next weekend for easter, so i'll not be attending the club (i hope someone can temporarily host the event as i know nungate & queen will also be away)

friday will also be the first anniversary of my membership on AB in my current incarnation (i was here some years ago, but left)

[tonyav]

Thank you your Igorship.

I'm certain Tony will tuck you in Minty, now run along and see Belle.

Daisy, I love all sorts of films. I adore all those old black and white musicals and soppy ones from the '30s and '40s. When I go to the cinema I want to be entertained so I go to see films that don't tax the old grey cells, not that I go often, have to go when best beloved's around to take me. Used to love going to the theatre in Edinburgh with a friend when queenie was younger, she stayed home with her Dad and a neighbour would sit with her when he came to collect me - oh happy days! Couldn't take him, he always fell asleep!
Even slept through a performance of MacBeth with Derek Jacobi playing the lead role!

[tonyav]

Was that before or after a beer nungate lol.

[excelsior-1]

good to see you back tony

[nungate]

Not too long to wait for that one Excel. Queenie and I are looking forward to the next Iron Man film out next month. It would appear that best beloved and I are going to "double date" with her and her sailor as it comes out round our wedding anniversary and we were going to see it and then have dinner and her young man has said he was going to take her to see it at the same time we'd planned so double date.....could be an interesting evening as he hasn't met my husband yet...

I love all those Marvel films as well!

[tonyav]

Glad to be back excel, it's mad out there.

[DTCwordfan]

time to depart these fair shores me thinks....so a fond farewell and thanks to our splendiferous and gorgeous hostesses and the indomitable Igor.....

[DaisyNonna]

Nungate, love the theatre and have to go alone. Not the same as sharing.
Brought up in the Midlands and remember going to see Derek Jacobi at Birmingham Rep in Troilus and Cressida. I was 17 and smitten.
