Good evening and welcome to Nungate Towers for tonight's meeting of the Mad Over Fifties Club.
Our Tailcock tonight will be the "Supervolcano" something hot and spicy to warm the cockles on a cold January night. Something else to warm the heart and stomach is tonight's Hot Plate Special, a delicious Chicken casserole with herby dumplings, mm yum!! On the pudding trolley, we have a lovely Lemon and Sultana Steamed pudding with lashings of custard or whipped cream, and as always there will be the usual selection of volly vonts, canopies and horses doovers, and, also a choice of other delicious nibbles.
For those brave (or foolhardy souls) the bungee is in full working order (try and aim away from the moat one of these days I must have it re-sited [i
as it is common knowledge that the piranhas in the moat bite! The hot tub on top of the North Tower is bubbling away nicely, and the mini bar up there is fully stocked. In the Great Hall Gallery, the Minstrels are warming up to give their customary selection of madrigals and toccattas [i] it must be nearly time for time for them to go off on their tour of Muckelflugga - can't come soon enough [i] and they have also promised to perform their own versions of the greatest hits of Alice Cooper ............... mm fairy 'nuff. However, we have also engaged the services of a folk singing trio known hereabouts as the Four Sheepherders, they sing in a traditional manner (one hand over the ear and Arran sweaters all round) somewhat akin to the famed songs of that great of yester year Rambling Sid Rumpo ..... [i] cough ]

I have a few things on offer for tonight's rofl:
2 tins of Quality Street (empty of their contents, Thank you Mr Nungate)
12 inch wide terracotta flower pot (broken)
LP of Joe Dolce's Great Hit ..

A warm welcome awaits all who dare enter these portals. Igor is on hand for the concealment of coats, cloaks, and jackets (and the occasional broom)
These items may or may not be returned to their rightful owners at end of our festivities. (this matter is somewhat dependent on Igor's ability to remember where the um bodi items have been hidden) As always Igor will be your server for tonight ably assisted by Plant and possibly Frank the minion in training.

I know but I'm not the arty type of person

DTCwordfan

well I am not musical - I'll listen to it but when it comes to playing, the musical tempo of a herd of 'phants - then there's the singing - can clear a pub in seconds.....

it's in there somewhere, it just manifests itself in other ways. Everyone is creative

DTCwordfan

I agree with you, nungate, - and there are some ways to get folk to draw the basics.

Exactly DT. In my mind it's all about what you see, then how you interpret it on the paper/canvas or whatever medium you are working in.

DaisyNonna

Can't draw, only musical instruments I can play are the recorder and ocarina. Creative? I wonder. Can make stage props and can cook without a recipe, does that count?
Only creations seem to be with words.
Another bucket please Igor.

DTCwordfan

Cooking counts.....in my book, anyway. I enjoy it, and I also enjoy writing.

Can still manage a bit of needlework, and I don't so much cook as "assemble" when Queenie does the prep for me. I suppose I could doodle a bit until my hand gets really sore ...... can still manage typing, though that hurts my wrists - I'm glad I'm not a horse I'd have been shot a long time ago!

What would you all really like to do that you don't think you can?
