Mad Over Fifties Club

[nungate]

Time once again for Nungate Towers to open the portals for the meeting of the AB Mad Over Fifties.
For tonight's extravaganza, we have the Hot Plate Special, a lovely hot and spicy Chilli con Carne, with rice and cornbread, and of course the customary nibbles, volly vonts and canopies. On the pudding trolley tonight we have a choice of Treacle sponge and custard, or Sherry Trifle (heavy on the sherry)
The tailcock of choice this evening will be the "Nungate Sling" an interesting variation on that classic, Singapore Sling (a particular favourite of mine) The Minstrels are back again in the Gallery and tonight they are returning to their usual offerings of Madrigals and toccattas, though later on they have promised to play for us their own take on the greatest hits Boxcar Willie - could be interesting as I thought something like that would require some antiseptic, however,...........
For your further entertainment, that wonderful pair of dancers, Clarke Ruffle Horrid and his delightful dance partner, Tessie Tura the Tottenham Twirler will be giving us a dance exhibition in the ballroom followed by one to one instruction for any member wishing to take their first steps into the Terpsichorian Art. Also on offer are donkey rides down by the lake, sad to say that there can be no rally car racing round the track tonight as we are awaiting the delivery of a new rally car, since Queenie managed to write one off doing hand brake turns and ended up having an argument with a tree (she lost, so did the car....)
So, the hot tub is bubbling away in the North Tower, the mini bar has been refilled, the bungee is ready for any unwise souls willing to jump, as always the bowling alley is primed and waiting. Igor has his chains all buffed and is standing by to welcome our guests.
Murraymints has sent her apologies, owing to an urgent family matter she will not be joining us this evening (the pink sparkly is being held by Belle in the Ladies Retiring Room awaiting her return).
Be assured a warm welcome awaits all who dare enter these portals

Carriages at midnight.

Oh Modom, you can't keep the bucket, them's solid silver they goes back in the vault, Madame would have me chains if I let 'em out of the Towers....

[nungate]

Hello there Daisy, would you like to dry off in the snug? I could send Belle down with a change of clothes for you and a warm blanket for Eric and a lovely cloth to sponge down Malkin.

Goodnight then Mrs O, I'm afraid the bucket is part of a set, been in the family for centuries...............

[tonyav]

See ya then mrs overowl, have a gud un.

Hi ya Daisy, only one point for us today even though we scored both goals !.

[DaisyNonna]

Thanks nungate but I am well swathed in oilskins. Looking forward to a donkey ride.

[DTCwordfan]

Hi all. I may make it later but busy here......Have a good time and keep the buckets cold.

[nungate]

See you later then DT


I'm surprised you get so wet, it's been lovely here today, the sun shone! Had to wear sunglasses! Imagine that! You get dried off before you go down to that lake, it can get a little chilly down there, it's all floodlit though and there are heaters to stave off the night chill

[DaisyNonna]

Hi Tony, one better than none. Bournemouth won again, closer to promotion. Mmm. This sling is swinging!

[tonyav]

Mmmmmm donkey rides, that sounds good.

nungate would you like me to have a look at that wrec sorry I mean that car that was involved in the most unfortunate of accidents. bloody women drivers.

Hi ya DT.

[nungate]

total write off Tony, gone to the great car dump in the sky, thanks for the offer though..

[tonyav]

Oh dear, never mind then nungate.
Tony puts his tools back in the van, doh I could have sold some parts on Ebay.

[Igor61]

here we go again I wish them numpties in the gallery would waltz across Texas right enough and never come back

[Mammar]

Evening all. Just stickin' me 'ead round the door for a few.
Still no Excel for my door plaque ceremony, I see.
I shall just go get me Asda bag for the riffle prizes.
A large bucket, please, Igor, and a small one for the underage child I have snuck through the door tonight.

[DaisyNonna]

Nungate, would it be alright to let Paddy explore the lake? He could do with meeting some new friends.

[nungate]

Good evening Mammar, we've missed you, the curtains are still waiting to be pulled on your plaque, sadly Excel has a prior engagement this evening, we will have to postpone the unveiling for another week or so.
Your usual bucket? I think you'll find tonight's tailcock interesting.........Oh, I see you have brought a little friend, Igor a lemonade for the little one please...

[tonyav]

Good evening to you Mammar. gawd theres a munchkin running around here.

[Igor61]

Yes Madame. do we even have lemonade?


Belle have you seen the goings on in that ballroom? What a pair, they look like they've bin tangoed! I'm sure I saw that Twirler person at another establishment recently, some 'otel wot's just opened up......jes checkon out the opposition like, I'm she she was in there waggling tassels......

[tonyav]

I have to say nungate that I once suffered with Box Car Willy but the clinic sorted it out !.

[nungate]

Of course it is Daisy, have him stay on the path though, wouldn't do for himto go wandering off, he might end up in the maze and probably wouldn't be found until Tuesday week!

Tony, I'm in shock!!

[tonyav]

Which hotel is that Igor, perhaps I ought to give it an inspection.

[Mammar]

1 special edition Coca Cola glass from McDonalds
An antique mobile phone Nokia 3310 in good working order
