Good evening a welcome to all members of the Mad Over Fifties club. we have a packed programme of events for tonight. The Minstrels are in the gallery warming up for their usual round of madrigals and toccatas and in the ballroom our favourite local band the Tone Deafs are warming up for an evening of sixties covers! Our tailcock this evening is the "Tiny Teddy" named for the newest member of our family Teddy the kitten! Tonight's hot plate special is Bangers and mash with onion gravy, and on tonight's pudding trolley we have strawberry tarts with Chantilly cream (Queenie was busy making the cream before she scooted off to the speedway) For your further entertainment in the vestibule we have Dr Zonko and Hilda (his beautiful assistant) with amazing magic tricks and lion taming!
The hot tub is on the north tower bubbling away the mini bar has been replenished (thank you Igor) The bungee still has plenty of bounce in it!
Both swimming pools are ready for members use (cosies are available in the changing rooms), the rowing boats are lined up on the shores of the lake, and the race track has been re-laid and the cars revved ready to use.
The gardens are looking splendid and the barbecue down on the beach are all set the arrival of our members.
A warm welcome awaits all who dare enter these portals

Not wanting to put the mockers on your plan Mammar but the more you want to make the book perfect it's quite possible that you will make a few mistakes. Would you fancy turning it into a sort of "scrapbook" where you write down your memories and add some treasured photos and maybe a few souvenirs? Things like tickets to a concert (include the programme if possible) and the little bits of ephemera that we stash away in little boxes of mementoes
I reiterate. First catch your kitten. Have you any idea how difficult it is to find a black kitten among the "shadows" in a not overly bright room.
After yesterday's debacle with the water from the bathroom pouring through the light fittings above my sofa you might understand my reluctance to switch on the other lights ....

MoFC Friendship is Igor's Chain,
The polished links are his friends so dear,
And like a rare and precious jewel
He treasures them more each year...
They're clasped together firmly
With a love that's deep and true,
And they're rich with happy memories
and fond linked recollections, too...
Time can't destroy his chain's beauty
For, as long as our memories live,
Years can't erase the pleasure
That the joy of MoFC friendship give...
For MoFC friendship is a priceless gift
That can't be bought or sold,
But to have an understanding friend and
a silver chain iss worth far more than gold.
And Igor's silver Chain of Friendship
Is a strong and blessed nungate tie
Binding kindred hearts together
As our years go passing by.

That's the best way Mammar, put in the stuff you're known for. Queenie still harps on about my drawings and stories of Frogula and Frogenstein, I still; have some of those little drawings but only one of the stories and it's not about the two frogs but about her, no It was my Teddy Edgar Beargen

Summer was tennis (we had to make our own tennis dresses) rounders (got knocked out the first match we played) and cricket.
Winter , hockey, bliss, I had a weapon.
Indoors, gym, volleyball and dance.
Tony, one of our PE teachers was the daughter of Joe Bradford who used to play for the Blues. No slacking for us!

Tony there was a leak in the en suite, I only heard the trickling of water across the ceiling when Best Beloved was in the shower - the water started to pour through after he'd showered! We'd to get the plumber out (again! we've had nothing but bother with the en suite this year!) He told me there was a problem with a pipe which was leaking so he cut it and stucke it back in and tightened all the joins and that should be that! Must have been leaking for a wee while as parts of the bedroom carpet was wet too!
