Mad Over Fifties Club

[nungate]

Good evening all, and welcome to Nungate Towers, so come on down and let our revels begin.............I sure could use the company!!
Tonight's Tailcock is the "Nungate Abandoned" a somewhat solitary yet interesting brew, on account that everyone has gone off and left me here all alone,......all on me tod.......just me and five moggies, who, however sweet they are, they are not scintillating conversationalists!
Igor is by the door waiting to collect all coats, cloaks, and broomsticks ready for concealment in various crooks and nannies around the Towers,
members please note all outer garments are left at their owners risk [i Our Hot plate special for tonight is a delicious cottage pie (we had some derelict cottages on the estate and I do hate to see waste ........) horses doovers, canopies and our world famous (at least in the AB World) volly vonts, and on our pudding trolley we have a selection of ice creams, and of course every possible (within reason) topping, and a choice of ice cream sauces, and whipped cream! Time to make your own sundaes!!
In the Great Hall gallery, the Minstrels are busy setting up and getting ready to give us their now legendary (in their minds at least) selection of madrigals, toccatas and as a special treat they will throw in a cantata or two
[i] stifles a yawn ] meanwhile down in the ballroom, for those members wishing a bit of a dance we have engaged the services of our favourite local band The Tone Deafs
Members will please note that the bungee will be reinstated at the beginning of next month, the same goes for the hot tub, which is currently enjoying a brief sojourn with the indoor pool down in the dungeons, mini bar has been keeping them company (and has also been refilled)
The snug has a nice cosy fire, and nice comfy sofas just ready for members in search of a quiet evening. Anyone one wishing to visit the conservatory is reminded not to feed the Triffid, it's not due another feed until Easter....
Would members please remember to collect their tickets for the rofl from Belle in the vestibule, and if you wish to stay over please let her know so that the guests suites can be prepared.

A warm welcome awaits all who dare enter these portals

Evening nungate. Sorry to hear of your solitary state. Got really fed up of mine this week. Perhaps it is caused by those tantalising snippets of sun.

[nungate]

We've had some nice days too this week, took us by surprise, so much so I've even allowed Mr. N to turn back our heating a bit! Queenie is off somewhere with one of the girls she works with and best beloved is at work and I've been on my own since Queenie went back to work after lunch, going a bit stir crazy now

[DTCwordfan]

Good evening to all and sundry, then the rest.

Rofl prizes tonight

One road scourer
One pot of road paint - orange
One brush - no hairs
One Gas bottle - no gas or valve
One dog collar, no studs
One ton of twigs (different to last week)
Three guppies
One tin of Cruft's dog food
One pound of alligator meat for those w. piranhas.
One Llama - stuffed.

[DTCwordfan]

Remind us nungate on the cat names......?

[DTCwordfan]

and their ages, please.

[DaisyNonna]

Know the feeling. Managed not to put the heating on until nearly 7 tonight. Out most of the morning because the wretched post man did not ring the bell yesterday. Had to trek down to the sorting office to collect a parcel that had to be signed for. A book! Never had to sign for one before. Not asked to sign when I got there.
A tailcock would be just the thing if I may nungate.

[DTCwordfan]

and sex if not obvious.....

[Igor61]

The cat's names DT? how soon they forget!

Molly is Madame's,
Lou, Max and Henry belong to Queenie
Teddy - there is some dispute over his ownership - Queenie paid for him and Madame pays for his insurance and vet's fees so since that costs more than her purchase price he's hers - Queenie says no .....

[DaisyNonna]

Evening DT. Sundry, makes me feel that I am a tomato.

[stewey]

I have two outdated units of AB Neg.. I'm sure that they would make a bloody good prize.

[DTCwordfan]

No heating on here until recently, after the take-away...

[nungate]

Why the feline info request DT? I think Igor just answered, and they really have no sex and they have all been "done"


I may have to duck out of proceedings for a while tonight as I have a couple of domestic duties needing to be done - I will return afterwards though I shouldn't be too long

[nungate]

.....and yet messy Stewey, messy

Does everyone have a bucket yet? Igor .......!!!

[Igor61]

Coming Madame, I have the buckets right here, I shall pass them around....


is that blood I smell Madame? Brunhilde musn't know about it

[DTCwordfan]

Molly's age

Lou's dubious heritage? Female?

You'll see soon.

[tonyav]

Evening all, Igor my usual bucket if you please.
Two roffle prizes from me tonight !
A 1998 BMW 5 series 523 i touring and one very flat battery to fit the very same car.

[tonyav]

is that blood I smell Madame? Brunhilde musn't know about it

Are the cats having a scrap, Igor ?.

[DaisyNonna]

Hi Stewey!. Not for me thanks, I'm A Pos.
Which reminds me, tonight's rifle offerings. Given up on spring, garden unworkable in time. Pair of gardening gloves, purple with white spots, size XS. Assorted bulbs, rusty secateurs (left out by mistake last autumn) and a packet of wild flower seeds. Weeds to some.

[stewey]

iIalso happen to have a bag of platelets; however, they're all O Positive so therefore they won't clump together...Bleeding useless they are, but would make a nice conversation piece.

[nungate]

Lou, girl. We were told she was a boy so he was named Louis (after Louis Armstrong - one of Queenie's Granddad's favourites) but when she went for her first vet visit (or as they are referred to in this castle - the Toothfairy)
The vet thought she might actually be a girl, he had to call in a vetinary nurse to be certain - so Louis became Louise and Lou for short. In mitigation she is a long haired cat, lovely black cat with green eyes (and she loves me better than she does Queenie )
