Here we are again, another meeting of the Mad Over Fifties Club! Welcome to Nungate Towers, one and all.
Tonight's Tailcock will be the "November Noggin" a lovely spicy brew - guaranteed "central heating" for this cold damp evening! On our menu tonight we have a rich hearty beef casserole with dumplings, as our hot plate special, on the pudding trolley we have plum duff and custard! Other treats for tonight are volly vonts, canopies and horses doovers!
Up in the gallery the Minstrels are currently playing pontoon but later on they will be regaling us with their usual selection of madrigals and fugues, down in the ballroom our favourite local band The Tone Deafs have joined with the Hotel Spendido Palm Court Orchestra to form a "supergroup" and they will be swinging along to the popular tunes from the "Swing" era! (pass me my bobby socks!) Meanwhile down in the Music room we have a special treat, the return of Flamenco Flo and her performing poodles!
Everybody dance now!!!
For the rofl tonight I have to offer:
set of broken lute strings (courtesy of the Minstrels)
1 cardboard box (empty but useful)
Spare set of chains (thank you Igor)
A warm welcome awaits all who enter these portals
carriages at midnight

cold nights in Nungate Towers, a sock-shod
stove-warmed flatiron slid under Queenies
covers, mornings a damascene-
sealed bizarrerie of pirahna fernwork
decades ago now but still there
waking in northwest Berwick, tea
brought up steaming, a McPeak Frean
biscuit alongside to be nibbled
as blue gas leaps up singing
Noggins from November decades ago now
damp sheets in Tweed, Fifedom fog-hung
habitat of bronchitis, of long
hot soaks in the iron bathtub, of nothing
quite drying out till next Isle o' Bute summer:
delicious to think of, but AB delirium or delusion
Lady J hassocks pulled in close, Igor's toasting-
forks held to coal-glow, strong-minded
tony's goats and big eager black cats
muscling in on bookish profundities
now quite forgotten
the castle long fuelled, old friends
alive in ABland or lost track of, what's salvaged
is this vivid diminuendo, unfogged
by mere affect, the perishing residue
of pure AB tailcock sensation
What is it - ah the November Noggin,
the reason why. Hic.

Yes, it is a show Tony, called 'A Moment in Time'. The Dorset ballet schools get together once a year to do a charity show, money going to local children's charities. This year each school is to choose a particular time and a dance to go with it, not necessarily ballet. GD's school have chosen to do The Lindy Hop. Can't wait!
