Good evening members new and old.
Once more the drawbridge is down and I am throwing the doors open to you all. Her Ladyship is a little delayed - no doubt high tea has developed into an evening soiree, such is the way with the aristocracy. However I did not want anyone to be waiting outside in this chill damp air.
The buffet sideboard is as usual laden with delights and I have a huge pot of freshly made wild mushroom soup on the Aga.
This week's guest Tailcock is the 'Biker-boot' a real kick-start to the night and does 0-60 erm, very quickly.
My contribution to the Rofl:
4 rolled up newspapers
Empty cookie tin (model of a tractor)
2 pairs of fishnet pop sox (one lilac one lime)
So gather round and we shall have fun.

Good evening, Matron.
I aplogise for my tardiness, I am suffering somewhat with a far-from common cold. For the rofl, I can offer -
A box of Lem-sip sachets dated 2006.
1/2 bottle of Benylin non-drowsy cough medicine.
An Optrex eye-bath.
As you may surmise, a medicine cupboard has been cleared.
I fear some of the alacrity with which I hide coats & provide drinkies may be lacking this evening, but I shall soldier on, brave butler that I am.

sorry I will not be attending as I am soon heading to bed with a stinking cold......third day now and I guess being up at 6am to watch the Daffs play the Shamrocks with the leather bladder didnt help my cause.

The Common Cold (apologies Aaron Copeland)
Go hang yourself, you old M.D.!
You shall not sneer at me.
Pick up your AB hat and stethoscope,
Go wash your mouth with Ed's laundry soap;
I contemplate a TTFN joy exquisite
I'm not paying you for your Nonna visit.
I did not call you to be told
My Mylady is a common cold.
By pounding brow and AYG swollen lip;
By Mamya's fever's hot and scaly grip;
By those two red redundant eyes
That weep like woeful October skies;
By racking snuffle, snort, and polar sniff;
By boxy handkerchief after handkerchief;
This AB cold you wave away as naught
Is the damnedest cold DTC ever caught!
Give ear, you scientific Lie-In fossil!
Here is the genuine Cold Colossal;
The Cold of which AB researchers dream,
The Perfect Cold, the Postdog Cold Supreme.
This honored system humbly holds
The Super-Ratter cold to end all colds;
The Cold Crusading for NoMercy Democracy;
The AOG Führer of the Streptococcracy.
Bacilli swarm within my AlexanderEd portals
Such as were ne'er conceived by mortals,
But bred by Errant scientists wise and hoary
In some Olympic bibblebub laboratory;
Bacteria as large as JTH mice,
With feet of fire and heads of ice
Who never interrupt for slumber
Their stamping sherrard elephantine rumba.
A common cold, gadzooks, forsooth!
Ah, yes. And Tony Blair was jostled by Cherie Booth;
Don Quassia was a budding gallant,
And Shakespeare's plays show signs of talent;
The Arctic Alba winter is fairly coolish,
And your Sqad diagnosis is fairly foolish.
Oh what a derision Doc history holds
For the DTC who belittled the Cold of Colds!
