Mad Over Fifties Club

[nungate]

Good evening and welcome to Nungate Towers for the latest meeting of Mad Over Fifties Club. Igor is at the door eagerly awaiting tonights arrivals so that he can gather up their coats, cloaks a broomsticks for concealment around the Towers, members should note that all items left for concealment are left at their own risk and we cannot guarantee their safe return at the end of our revels
Tonights Tailcock will be the "Dyspeptic Daiquiri", shall we say it's an "interesting brew" not to mention colourful!
Our hot plate special tonight is roast chicken with all the trimmings! For those who might prefer something lighter, we have a selection of volly vonts
horses doovers and canopies. On the pudding trolley, we have a special request by Queenofmean for an Ice Cream Gateau, layers of different flavours of ice cream, swathed in whipped cream and topped with a selection of fresh fruit.
We are pleased to announce the return of the bungee to the topmost tower
and the hot tub is also back in his rightful place atop the North Tower, and of course his best friend the Mini bar has returned there too (fully stocked)
(sadly the indoor pool is bereft now his friends have relocated from the dungeon) Now that the lighter evenings have returned we are delighted to say that the gardens and the maze are also open for members use. Rowing boats will be available in a few weeks for rowing on the lake, and the racetrack has had new floodlights for night time driving and the cars are all ready for racing!
Our indoor entertainment comes in the shape of our Minstrels who are tuning up in the gallery of the Great Hall getting ready to serve up their usual selection of madrigals and toccattas. In the Ball Room, we have engaged the services of the Tone Deafs a selection of Eighties Hits. As always our indoor facilities are available to all members, as it will be a few weeks before we can use the outdoor pool, members are reminded that the indoor pool is ready for use (swimsuits are available) I would urge members to give it a try, he's feeling very low since his friends have returned to the North Tower.
Our well stocked library has all the latest magazines and periodicals, including the latest edition of Quantum Physics for Midwives. Members must remember not to feed the Triffid if they visit the conservatory, its next feed is due at Easter. (would the owner of the green hat found at the feet of the triffid please collect it from Lost Property) I am happy to say that owing to members good behaviour in not throwing litter into the moat, the piranhas have recovered from their bout of indigestion (the pepto bismol was turning the water pink!)
Please hand all contributions for the rofl to Belle in the vestibule)
For tonights rofl I offer:
- Pack of needles (rusty and blunt)
- tangle of embroidery threads
- half finished cross stitch picture (chart lost)

A warm welcome awaits all who dare enter these portals

[nungate]

Well, hello there Sir Alec, lovely to see you again, can I have Igor fetch you a drink?

[DTCwordfan]

Doesn't one of you have to propose first, queenie?!

[tonyav]

You'll have a great time in Paris I'm sure, Daisy has the Eiffel tower got a glass floor ?.

[DaisyNonna]

Evening Sir Alec.
Sounds as if you have been busy. Meant to garden tis afternoon after shopping this morning but just as I arrived home it started to rain. Forecast for tomorrow is yet more rain. At least it settled the dust.

[Sir Alec]

Thanks nungate, I've already filled my trug to bursting.

[DaisyNonna]

Tony! Shall I put a hex on your windsurfer on the way home?
Going for a swim, realise the pool is lonely.

[nungate]

Not too much bother with the dust up here, though it rained a fair bit here this morning, I also need to get the "staff" out into the garden but that will have to wait until after the "spring clean" (staff aren't that keen on that)

[Sir Alec]

Evening Daisy! We have rain forecast here in the next couple of days, so wanted to get all the worst bits out of the way before the deluge.

[Igor61]

That is nice of you Madame Daisy, the pool has been very lonely, sits down there singing "nobody knows the trouble he's seen" or words to that effect, he will be glad of the company, Sir Cumference has looked in on him a couple of times but even he hasn't been able to cheer him up, I'm sure he'd love a visit from you

[tonyav]

When it rained here the other day it looked like my car had been in a sand storm.


Think I'll join you, Daisy.

[Sir Alec]

We have been lucky here. None of the sand, just a heavy fog for 3 days.

[tonyav]

Oh we had the mist to, Sir A, it was irritating my throat ( kept having to drink beer !).

[nungate]

Good excuse that Tony, was it that bad?

[tonyav]

I thought so, nungate. It sort of disappeared yesterday morning.

[nungate]

That would be the rain then, or the Atlantic front moving in

[tonyav]

Yes, one or the other, nungate.

[Sir Alec]

I have an Atlantic front at the moment. Having only recently finished my dinner, I'm a bit bloated.
