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

I don't join in this thread but I just wanted to say that whoever puts it together has an amazing imagination. Well done, whoever you are. Every week is different and it is a work of art.

Long may you continue.

Puzzled Dec, why?

Thank you Tilly, I have an entire world floating around my head - MOFC is how it escapes! Feel free to come in and join the madness, the age thing is a mere suggestion, we don't claim to be exclusively for the over fifties

Evening nungate, queenie and Igor, Daffy appeals to me tonight. Have not quite finished packing so will be magicking myself in an out tonight. Don't usually use this method as it makes me very hungry and tired next day but SIL is collecting me tomorrow so I can relax. Eric knows he is to take care of the others if I have to witch back then we can have a quiet flight home.

For the rifle I have the cinder toffee as promised, some homemade parkin, Welshcakes straight out of the oven and some biltong.
