Mad over Fifties Club

[ladyalex]

The Club is now Open.

Good evening and welcome, everyone.

As the weather has been a little kinder to us of late, the clocks are due to change tonight and the Dark Blues have won the Boat Race, perhaps there is some truth to the rumour that Spring is on its way.
However, the nights are still a little nippy, so gather round our cosy hearth for another Club Night.

Drinks and nibbles will no doubt appear shortly and we can only hope that our trusty Matron will again excel herself with a new tailcock recipe. (Last week's amazing creation, the 'Lunar surprise@ lingers firmly in the memories and possibly also the livers of the members who attended last week.)

The raffle cupboard seems to be bare, so presumably all items were won last week...is this a record ?

Here are my donations for this week's raffle:

A packet of cheese and onion crisps . (Hardly flattened at all.)
A small tin of Mint Balls. (No, not Uncle Joe's, they're for the raffle)
A Fair Isle pattern mitt. (Right hand .)

Please feel free to add to them.

Is it like swaddling.

I've a little book is far too mundane for a superstar such as he.

[DaisyNonna]

Wow! Now I understand the comet bit. You have excelled yourself. What was in it?

[anneasquith]

baby binder, from the olden days. a piece of cotton/muslin wrapped around newborn baby i believe to protect the umbilicus, used i believe until the cord had fallen off.

[Mamyalynne]

I dare not say, but tomorrow will be spectacular!!

[ladyalex]

How about I've a small volume , then ?

[Mamyalynne]

Happy days Anne, yes well recalled.

[Mamyalynne]

Yes but you haven't milady, that's your fifth large drink.

[anneasquith]

i didnt use them mamy,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,LOL.

[ladyalex]

I think I have a memory of someone talking of this baby binder thingy.
Do I vaguely recall a halfpenny being put over the belly-button to stop it from becoming an 'outie' ?

[DaisyNonna]

Is it timeto try the grammy and have a fling? (Highland I mean)

[sackville]

No. I don't think it can be to do with volume because I played it earlier and it was quite loud. I suppose it could be a small novel if he was italian.

[ladyalex]

I thought he was Welsh ...

[DaisyNonna]

But Ivor the Engine was Welsh. Hic.

[Mamyalynne]

Another one!!

[DaisyNonna]

Carry on dancing like that and there will be a few more hernias. Anything to nibble?

Late again. It's all the fault of this clocky thing. I've just been round the house and changed them all. In fact I have for the ruffly one slightly damaged clock dropped behind the television while trying to put it back on the wall (the clock silly, not the television). I'll vote for anyone who promises to stop mucking about with time.
