Mad Over Fifties Club

[nungate]

Good evening and welcome to Nungate Towers and the Mad Over Fifties Club.
Igor is at the main entrance waiting to collect your coats, cloaks and broomsticks for concealment in a variety of crooks and nannies around the Towers, known only to him members should note that al personal belongings are left at their own risk, we cannot guarantee their safe return at the end of the evening, though members might wish to check the lost property office for anything that has gone astray recently
Tonight's Tailcock will be the "Daffy Dilly", nothing better for a "jaundiced" look at life!
Our hot plate special tonight comes in the form of a Chinese Banquet, all your favourite take out Chinese dishes are available for members to make their selections, so get your chopsticks ready...... keeping to our Chinese theme, on the pudding trolley we have apple and banana fritters, and ice cream. It would not be a true MOFC evening without the world famous volly vonts, canopies and horses doovers for tempt you...
As usual, the Minstrels are up in the Gallery in the Great Hall, preparing their customary selection of madrigals and toccattas for our delight and entertainment....................yeh right! For those members wishing to trip the light fantastic, down in the ballroom we have secured the services of the Bert Campfire big band complete with two of the Dagenham Lady Pipers, to ensure our evening goes with a swing!
The bungee is well secured on the topmost Tower ready for the most daring of members, and at the top of the North Tower you will find the hot tub and mini bar, on a clear day you can see forever! Again, the maze and gardens are open for members wishing an evening stroll, (the head gardener is particularly proud of his spring bulbs this year) the race track is at the ready and the cars all fuelled up and ready to go!
Within the confines of the Towers, our well stocked library is open for those members who prefer a quiet time, the indoor pool down in the dungeon is still missing his friend the hot tub and would welcome any member wishing a swim (we do have a selection of swim wear for members to use). Members should also note that if they enter the conservatory they are requested not to feed the triffid, as feeding it out of season can be annoying.
Since I forgot to make the draw for last weeks rofl the prizes have been held over until tonight, tickets can be had from Belle in the vestibule.
A warm welcome awaits all who dare enter these portals

How big are your scissors?

[nungate]

which ones?

[DaisyNonna]

We have a selection. Depends upon what and why you want them. Scissor kicks are applauded. Scissor moves in soccer are not unknown. As are scissor kicks in swimming. How may we help you?

[nungate]

I have more than a dozen all different sizes

[anneasquith]

[tonyav]

[tonyav]

Good idea, Daisy. Another bucket for me to please, Igor.

[Igor61]

I'm fine Madame Daisy, just keeping myself busy, you have all been so busy chatting away I didn't like to butt in, I have a noce tray of refreshments all ready
I'll be there in a moment.

Do have a lovely trip to Paris (just in case I forget to wish you a bon voyage)

[DaisyNonna]

Merci Bien, Igor.

[DaisyNonna]

Never had a sibling nun.

[Igor61]

you are most welcome Madame Daisy, Tony sir, I have refilled your bucket too

[tonyav]

Thanks Igor, I think I'll have a pick at the Chinese banquet now, feeling a bit peckish.

[nungate]

nothing special about siblings Daisy, I know of two who are how shall I put it?..................useless............ my original thoughts were less than kind (one of whom is mine, I cannot say the other is - not my place)
Queenie is happy not to have any I believe, or at least that's what she tells me

[Igor61]

Will you need chopsticks or would you prefer cutlery, Tony sir?

[anneasquith]

igor, hes usung his fingers !

[tonyav]

I think I'd be safer with traditional cutlery Igor.

[Igor61]

[tonyav]

Oi madam, there clean, I washed them in the moat earlier.
