Mad over fifties club

[ladyalex]

The club is now open.


Two knitting bags and a selection of large triangular knitted garments were found scattered around the clubhouse last week. Any member who thinks that they may have lost such items should apply to someone.

I don't think we have your tablecloth, grasscarp. Are you sure you left it here and not with the insurance man ?
I too have fond memories of Klondyke, the little gold-digger

[Prudentia]

amanda holden does have a couple of good points but they shade into insignificance with mine!

[grasscarp]

I prefer Amanda more natural. Tonights heavy make up didnt suit her. thats my two pennith.

[sleekit-kate]

[grasscarp]

Ladyalex when they came to collect me last week you still had my best damask tablecloth!

[caththecrazy]

Mama is not good at taking orders - well she wasn't from the previous matron but her knitting was a bit holey..

[ladyalex]

Well ,I think we're OK for raffle prizes now...more prizes than members this week.
(Up to three bottles of Senokot now...been a bit of a run on it.)

I've got my hat , eyepatch and wooden leg on .
Landlubbers beware!
15 men on a dead man's chest.

[ladyalex]

Sorry, grasscarp, I'll have a look for it, but I'm sure that you'll find that the Insurance man gives you the best cover.

[caththecrazy]

I have a hook - it took a long time explaining that I wasn't someone else on the way here though.....

Does my hat look good?

And what is this about a jolly rogering????

Not to mention Seaman Staynes

[ladyalex]

Naomi that is priceless.
Drunken sailors, jolly rogering , Klondyke the forty niner, my ship has truly come in.

[Prudentia]

Clinton says monica never did that to me, a blair truth springs to mind

[caththecrazy]

Naomi that is brilliant

[ladyalex]

Have you brought Clinton along, prudentia ?
Where is he ? And his mouth organ ?

[Naomicorlett]

I see no ships............only hardships. Remember if you can see the light at the end of the tunnel...it's the train coming towards you.

Those people at Asda are so rude. When I asked for a BOGOF on husbands they called the Police. Said I was crazy. Whatever do they mean, it's Cathy who's crazy. Anyway the nice policemen gave me a lift back and I've invited them in. They're just bringing the rest of my shopping in. Such nice boys, and so good looking too!

[Naomicorlett]

And where oh where is the ships boy , Master Bates.?

[ladyalex]

Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum
