Lordalex is very well this week , which makes a change. All his parts are in working order and he is having his customary after dinner snooze in the lower turret room with the dogs keeping his feet warm.
New members may wish to creep upstairs and view him, but please be quiet as I cannot be responsible for his behaviour if he is suddenly roused.
Here I am Milady and all, was locked in the orangery whilst sneaking a ciggie, Golly its cold isnt it, have made a tray of tailcocks and some mulled wine
It would be wonderful if you could attract the attention of the itinerant Italian, boxtops. There is no sign of Mamyalynne yet , so no food.
If she doesn't turn up soon, we will have to raid the pantry ourselves.
Pleased to see that you are paying attention, lardhelmet....you sound like someone who might be no stranger to a kitchen, so perhaps you could knock something up for us all later?
Here is *** the icecream man, to take your orders. He only has soft scoop (and flakes) which surprises me given the temperature outside. He says he will give us the icecream free because nobody else is buying and he needs to get rid of it. Place your orders!
Milady I am dismayed to see that the name of the icecream seller has been censored, is this a committee decision? His name is the same as Guy Fawkes (only in Italian).
Society, it is not obligatory to be over 50 to join this club, but not being mad might be more of a difficulty.......however, usually simply joining in is sufficient evidence of madness to allow at least temporary membership to be granted.
Petal, I'm sorry to say that there are still some boobytraps on some of the stairs. I have begged lordalex to remove them all, but he had another letter from the Tax people last week, so......
..and society I do apologise, I don't see too well in the dark, I mistook your fur coat for a hairy-rugby-like look. May I get you an icecream in compensation?
