Mad over fifties Club

[ladyalex]

The Club is now Open.

Good evening to all members , old and older.

There is yet again no speaker arranged for this week. (I blame the Committee).

Raffle prizes are a little thin at the moment, but no doubt will flesh out as the evening progresses.
So far we have:

A box of wafer thin mints
A roll of tissue paper (white)
Half a packet of sewing needles.

No doubt our usual array of drinks and nibbles will arrive shortly, courtesy of our dear Matron and the furry butler.


Apologies have been received from Petal who has been transported to a galaxy far, far away.
No word so far of ttfn, who has been so frequently rusticated that I fear for her colouring.

[ladyalex]

Are we on red alert, Mamya ?


Did I miss something whilst in my decline ?

[Lie-in King]

Tailcocks, tailcocks! Get 'em while they're nicely chilled, they're lovely!

[Mamyalynne]

Good thinking , pass me the King Edwards.

[didoatwork]

No salt & vinegar on mine thanks

[Mamyalynne]

have broke the tin hats out too.

[ladyalex]

Should we douse the lamps ?

[DTCwordfan]

oh for a moment I thought her Lady said "Rouse the Camps"

[alexanderd]

I have some old gas masks should they be needed. If not then more raffle prizes

[DaisyNonna]

Most 4th declension words are male, milady. Is that why old ladies like them? Alexis, alexis. mmm. Rex, regis. Sure that is 3rd.

[Mamyalynne]

All greek to me

[Lie-in King]

Matron, I must insist you return my trousers! The Aga did these see-through ones no favours & they're really quite tight now...

[ladyalex]

But the ones I quoted are female, Daisy...all those years in the Latin class has not gone to waste after all.
And yes, rex, regis is 3rd.
(Anus,acus, quercus, manus)

[ladyalex]

Sounds as though you could do with an acus in your manus, LIK....

[Lie-in King]

Really, m'lady? Will it require me to move this strategically placed apron?

Tailcocks, tailcocks, matron's making more tailcocks!

[ladyalex]

No need for that LIK.

Please retain the apron.

[boxtops]

Maj, please don't move the apron, not unless you've done up the buttons....

[Lie-in King]

Would you like a nibble, m'lady?

[Mamyalynne]

There you are Majness, I have added an extra gusset to prevent further wrinklage.

[ladyalex]

Perhaps later, LIK .

You are kind , Mamya....I think we can all say we have at some point wished for the benefit of a good gusset.

[Lie-in King]

Hmph! Most kind, Matron. Please excuse me while I find a large screen...
