Mad over fifties CLub

[ladyalex]

The Club is now Open. (A little late again...blame the excitement over the Trooping of the Colour)


Welcome everyone!

No doubt the usual sumptuous array of delicious drinks and nibbles will appear shortly.

Tonight's raffle prizes include:

Half a tin of Mint Balls
Two pairs of socks, one blue and red, the other red and blue.
Box of bath cubes (one missing)


I have not heard the title of tonight's talk, or indeed the name of tonight's speaker, but I am sure all will be revealed later.

Going down the highway,
Going eighty-four,
Alexandered cut a second wind gasser
And it blew me, DTC, out the door!
The engine, it exploded,
The chassis fell apart,
All because of Alexander's
Supersonic stinking fart!

[mike11111]

So funny, I'm in stitches.

[alexanderd]

Do you think we could get DT banned Ladya? Please!!!

[ladyalex]

Drink kicking in now, DT ?

[ladyalex]

I think we could certainly issue him with a stern warning, alexanderd.

He's not the gentleman I thought he might be...

[DTCwordfan]

Not yet (unfortunately) Lady Alex

[ladyalex]

Consider yourself in the doghouse, DT.

[DTCwordfan]

A Bard can't afford to be a gentleman, not on the wages you pay....but seriously being a gentleman may stifle the irony......

I'll buy you a scotch, Alexander, seeing the issue of the "sporran bearer" came up earlier

[ladyalex]

I have never in my life ever knowingly stifled anyone's irony, DT. I resemble your suggestion that I might have.

Glad to see that you are trying to make amends with alexanderd. He is your line manager, you know...

[ladyalex]

ALso, there may be some misunderstanding as regards wages.
My staff pay me for the privilege of working here. I do not pay them. I am an aristo, after all and we pay for nothing. (That's how we stay rich, heh heh heh)

[Mamyalynne]

The wages are astronomical I agree but there are perks too, I have my garret and Alfie and I are warm and fed.

[DTCwordfan]

The irony of a friend you cannot talk to
The strange redemption you seek in others
Why friends can be so cold and thoughtless
I like to rely on irony as it never seems to fail
If there was a god out there
Lady Alex would hear me squirm and wail
I fail to see the irony in the same old routine
Wake up just to be let down
By Irony and her friends

[ladyalex]

I don't do the ironing, DT.

[DTCwordfan]

Not like Queen Liz and Phil then, Lady A:

"We are in the Iron and Steel business -
I do the Ironing and Prince Philip does the Stealing..."

[Maydup]

I popped home for a few more drinks and nibbles, they are on the side board.

Now have I missed the raffle draw? I would rather like to win the colourful socks if only to see if they run in the first wash.

[ladyalex]

boom boom !

[ttfn]

I see the Tide is out then (of favour) :o(

[alexanderd]

well i have had my "huff" and I accept the offer of a drink

[mike11111]

If the Tide is out you'll just have to settle for OMO or Daz.

[slinky.kate]
