Mad Over 50's Club now open

[Mamyalynne]

Good evening every one, sorry to be a little late in opening up, but Garfield the handyman had changed the code on the Portcullis and failed to tell me the new one - in truth I think he was distracted by the new fangled tellyvisual box he now has in his lean to at the side of the old stables.

Firstly absences :
MyLud and Lady are still in the land of large dentures.

TTFN is resting/rusting in rural climes (may pop by if the compost has kept the generator going)

Alexanderd is off to a speech at the dolls hospital or something along those lines.

This weeks guest Tailcock is the Rhodfryx a touch Welsh and a bit camp, very fresh and a perfect companion to my Lamb Tagine which bubbles on the Aga, To go with this there are warm flatbreads and a vegetable Pilaf.

For those requiring a lighter bite, there are the usual tasty nibbles as well as the best wines I could sneak out of the cellar. Please ask the Butler if you need refills or any other assistance (within the bounds of decency of course).

For the rufflet I have :

Book of Birds of Eastern Europe
A 10 shilling note
Pine Loo rim block refill
bag of green wine gums

So settle in and get snug.

Mamya ♥

Night giveup, sleep well.

[joggerjayne]

Err, hello.

I know I'm still (technically) too young to join the jolliest thread of the week, but ...

Well, I'm 45 on Monday (or thereabouts ... I lose track nowadays), so I'm getting there.

I'll be going on SAGA holidays soon, and signing up for the day trips to the local cathedral, or something.

Where was I ?

Oh, yes ... I've got some raffle items. Am I too late? I could leave them in for next week.

I've got ...

A clear paper weight with a seagull inside it (not a real seagull, obviously).

One of those stiff leather bookmarks from the Brighton Pavillion (with tassles on one end).

A "Palace Pier" mug. The "Palace Pier" has changed its name to just "Brighton Pier", so I think this mug could become a real collector's item ... maybe ranking along side Charles and Di tea towels, or The Queen Mother's Funeral ash trays.

JJ so kind of you to pop by and age is no bar, slightly mad is fine, what great prizes too - I will put them aside for next week. Come clean now, just the two of us, is it Monday your birthday? Don't want to look silly by wishing it to you. Asters are a good flower for September babies like ourselves.

[joggerjayne]

Well, it's the 12th.

That is Monday, I think. Yes, yes ... the more I think about it, the more confident I feel.

I'm not terribly good on flowers. I might have to Google "Asters".

Or I could use the time to make a cup of tea.

[Mamyalynne]

You could have a tailcock the Butler has gone to watch footie but I could fill you a glass.

[joggerjayne]

Well, the tailcock of the day sounds interesting ... the camp, Welsh one.

[Mamyalynne]

There you go, even has a little parasol in it, would look for a sparkler but is a bit late for pyrotechnics. Cheers!!

[joggerjayne]

Was there tootball today?

I thought it was rugby instead today.

Oh no ... hang on ... I think we won today. We are top still. If we can stay there all season, I win lots of money, which will be nice. It will pay for my first SAGA holiday.

[Rapunzel61]

good night one and all (staggers to door clutching bag of green wine gums)
any ideas as to where the butler put my coat?

[joggerjayne]

Ooh ... goodnight, Rapunzel.

[Mamyalynne]

Here you are Rapunzel, ooh you won the wine gums (hope you don't mind the bite marks) Night night xxx

[Mamyalynne]

The rugger is tomorrow I believe

[joggerjayne]

You could be right, mamya.

[Mamyalynne]

I iz, hic!

[joggerjayne]

I shan't be watching it.

I'm far too busy.

Well, not "busy" in the sense of having anything that I need to do.

Just ... err ... you know ... "busy" ... reading the papers, or something.

[Mamyalynne]

Understood, would you like a voltra vons - they are garlicky mushroom.

[joggerjayne]

Would you mind terribly if I didn't ?

They make me a little gassy.

[DaisyNonna]

Totsiens. Which team do I support tomorrow? Wales, my father's birthplace, South Africa my children's birthplace?

[Mamyalynne]

JJ they have been out a while, will feed them to the menagerie tomorrow.

Daisy, silly the side that wins of course.

[Lie-in King]

Coooeee! Matron?
