Mad Over Fifties Club

Good evening and welcome to Nungate Towers, venue of the latest meeting of the AB Mad Over Fifties club.
What have we for your delight and edification tonight?
Well, our Tailcock of the evening will be the "HowlinGale" inspiration drawn from the hoolie blowing outside! For our hot plate special we have that stomach lining dish, Stovies, hearty and filing, the very thing for a dark and stormy night! On the pudding trolley, our pastry chef has excelled himself and invented an ice cream Battenburg! Strawberry and Vanilla ice cream swathed in a golden almond sponge cake (a bit like a square Arctic Roll!) and of course the usual selection of volley vonts, canopies and horses doovers! mmm yum!
Up in the gallery, in addition to the usual selection of Madrigals and fugues played by the Minstrels, they will be joined later by the Towers' staff in the Great Hall for Carol singing (we haven't told Carol yet, boy will she be
surprised!) In the ballroom, we have our favourite local band The Tone Deafs playing a selection of oldies but goodies and just a soupcon of seasonal numbers tossed in to add a little festive touch.
The indoor pool is open to members, as is the library, where we have a lovely fire blazing in the hearth, and a fabulous selection of books and periodicals for members who would prefer a quieter evening, the snug is also available for members wishing a quiet time, there is a trolley of drinks and snacks laid out and a huge array of DVDs to choose from if members would prefer to watch something. Of course the hot tub is bubbling away on the North Tower for those members wishing to brave the elements (hopefully it has been well anchored) however I must state that owing to high winds the bungee will not be in operation this evening (the piranhas in the moat will be sorry and Igor will have to feed them later ....)
And now a short announcement for our members.
Next week will be MOFC's Annual Christmas Ball, members may wish to come in mufti if they please or dress as characters from Pantomime or any form of fancy dress of their choosing. Santa will of course "drop" in on proceedings with gifts for all!
For the rofl tonight I offer:
3 yards of purple tinsel (surplus to requirements)
1 set of fairy lights (not working)
4 boxes of Christmas tree baubles (smashed, thank you Plant aka "butterfingers" .......)
Igor will be in the vestibule to collect cloaks, brooms and any other accoutrements members wish to be concealed during the course of tonight's meeting (no guarantees of their safe return)
Queenofmean sends her apologies she has a prior engagement this evening
Daisynonna will also be an absentee owing to a better offer sigh Igor of course is devastated .......
A warm welcome awaits all who dare enter these portals
carriages at midnight
