Mad over Fifties Club

[ladyalex]

Good evening members everywhere.
The Club is now open.
As the cold damp weather is persisting, the fires have been banked up in the grand hall and the kettle is singing on the hob in the upper scullery.

Members are advised that there will be a Committee meeting this evening . Unfortunately the agenda has been mislaid, so we will have to make it up as we go along.

Tonight's lecture is entitled 'Crochet, are you hooked yet ?'

[Mamyalynne]

I could do a fillet in half an hour no trouble as long as you like it pink?

[Sandy-Wroe]

I have a book somewhere in the house. But I don't know where. After I was caught cooking the books some time ago I promised the Judge I'd never open a book again. I suppose I should give the committee a miss too.

[Mamyalynne]

Also have some lovely champagne wool , so we can toast our success as a group too

[Sandy-Wroe]

You have wool? Could you knit me a raincoat? I get soaked walking miles to the offie.

[ladyalex]

What a good idea.
Sunday lunch tonight, then in a few hours, Sunday tea and we don't need to get up tomorrow at all ....genius.
Mamya...get cracking with the needles. I'll embroider some gravy and yorkshires.

Sandy ..I do recommend Mamya's tailcocks, but you have to ca' canny with them...you know what I mean

[ladyalex]

I think there are at least 200 raincoats in the lost property. You can have your pick. That would leave Mamya to concentrate on the pink fillets and champagne toast.

The gravy and yorkshires are coming on a treat.

[Sandy-Wroe]

Wow, Ladyalex, they are strong. I've suddenly lost the power to stand upright. I think I'll crawl on all fours to the sofa and sleep it off.

Night all, sleep tight.

[ladyalex]

Good night Sandy. Hope to see you again next week.
Always good to welcome a new member with the right spirit.

How's the grub coming on, Mamya ?

[Mamyalynne]

The fillet is done to a t or a pink and just need to learn that crochet for mushroom pate and we can have a wellington yum yum

[Mamyalynne]
