Mad Over Fifties Club

[nungate]

Good evening and welcome to Mad Over Fifties Club. Here at the Towers we are in Olympic mood reflected in tonight's tailcock the "Sochi doodah"
Igor has donned his ski salopettes and Plant has taken to wearing silk thermals, there are large screens throughout the Towers showing the action and replays of todays events from the games.
Tonight's menu also reflects the games, on the hot plate tonight we have Fondue! A meaty version, a cheesy version and a sweet chocolate version!
(yumm) On the pudding trolley Black Forest Gateau (is it just me or is there a seventies vibe going on?) Echoing that our favourite local band the Tone Deafs will be playing a selection of seventies hits! Needless to say our customary volly vonts, canopies and horses doovers are also on the menu for tonight. Of course we also have some warming gluhwein and hot rum toddies!
Up in the gallery the Minstrels are warming up, another evening of madrigals and toccattas await us .......................
The fires are all banked up and nice cosy rooms await all who may not wish to indulge in some of our other activities. Talking of "alternatives" we have pushed the boat out, we have a ski slope, and an ice rink has been installed
skates are available for anyone wishing to go skating (sparkly costumes are optional) Why should we miss out on some snow fun and games? If that does not appeal, why not skip the Ski and go straight to the Apres Ski? As always, the hot tub is back up on the north tower - and yes the mini bar is back there too, we still do not have the use of the bungee, (elf and safety)
However, the indoor pool is ready to use, the games room is fully equipped,
the library is fully stocked and has a wide a varied selection of magazines and periodicals, including the latest edition of Crochet for Rugby Scrums
All in all we have a full programme for tonight's meeting.

A warm welcome awaits all who dare enter these portals

carriages at midnight.


Members will please note that the management of the Towers does not accept any liability for any injury sustained on the ski slope or any misuse of equipment. These entertainments are undertaken at members own
risk

My usual bucket if you please, Igor, must say those ski salopettes ( wonder if thats anything to do with Shropshire ) look good on you.
For the rifle I have two 'never drip' tap washers ( that do drip ) a pair of collapseable step ladders ( that have collapsed and won't recover ) and a set of glow plugs suitable for a 1967 Foden 16 ton lorry.

A bucket it is then Madame Daisy.
I see from your rofl offerings that you may have suffered from the severe weather? Madame has let me see some of the newsreels on the television box, it doesn't look at all pleasant down there

[DaisyNonna]

Queenie, I had not realised you were so graceful! Perhaps the landing needs a tad more work.
