Mad Over 50's Club now open.

[Mamyalynne]

May I bid you all good evening, in her Ladyships absence I have been asked to throw open the doors and bid you welcome.
Following last weeks excellent suggestion that we may raise some funds by having a small select campsite in the grounds whilst the 'Family@ were away, some very posh tents were procured or purloined and various facilities installed. After a local ad campaign we had a few takers, but and here is the rub, the local Bewildered neighbours though it a wheeze to disrupt proceedings. Damage to the lawns and a deep clean to the moat had to be done so all that was left was enough to clear the ever mounting tab at the chippy,
So maybe a fish supper later, still it was worth a try.

For the raffle I have knitted a camel hair scarf, courtesy of Humph, very soft.

Do help yourselves to the nibbles and tailcocks.

[Meg]

While you have all been so quiet the bewildered lot have infiltrated the building.

I'm hiding under the kitchen sink!!

[alexanderd]

come out Missmeg I will soon get rid of them I have a black belt in origami, no problem

[Meg]

Alex, thank goodness, I knew I could rely on your topiary skills!!
Many thanks.

[Mamyalynne]

Good gracious I thought you had all gone home and now look, has the crisis been averted by the usual hero of the hour.

ttfn has sent apologies for non attendance tonight, and wishes you all well.

[alexanderd]

No worries Matron all ok and quiet, was just wondering where you get you recipes from these chilli and treacle sandwiches are lovely

[Meg]

Beware Alex, I think that lot left the treacle and chilli sarnies.
Unless mamya confirms otherwise I think you may have been drugged.

[Mamyalynne]

Well I have had my moments and travelled almost to the next village, so you do pick up exotic ideas that way.

Glad you like them, my banana and guava are renowned.

[alexanderd]

OMG I do feel a bit unusual, think I will have a lie down somewhere quiet

[boxtops]

are you sure it's treacle alexanderd, they have been tarmacing the road outside this week, you dont want to gum up your innards.

[Mamyalynne]

No no they are mine, I also have a platter of pineapple and piccalilli , very piquant

[alexanderd]

thank goodness for that perhaps I am not any more unusual than usual

[Mamyalynne]

Might be trapped wind, Alfie suffers too.

[boxtops]

The bread on the sarnies is unusual mamya, is it stone ground? It seems to have an inordinate amount of stones.

[Meg]

Phew, I'll try one then.
Pineapple and piccadilli sounds good.
Soz alex, didn't mean to cause alarm.

[askyourgran]

Good evening everyone, I hope you are all well, although alexandered looks a little green around the gills, and miss meg is quaking under the sink. Are we having a crisis?

[Mamyalynne]

stones how dare you are sure they have not been dropped on the driveway? It is the finest granary not pappy white (which is only good for chip butties)

[Mamyalynne]

HI AYG no the crisis is averted, pull up a tuffet and have a tipple and a sarnie.

[Meg]

Hi gran, I have removed myself from under the sink, Boy do I ache after spending 2 hours under there.

And I saw evidence of mice.

[boxtops]

Mamya you are right, I did put it down on the step while moon gazing, it must be a bit of Millstone Grit.

[Mamyalynne]

Mica again! must get that lovely boy from rentokil back
