Mad over Fifties Club

[ladyalex]

The Club is now Open.

Welcome once again to our weekly get-together for fun frolics and felicity.

The weather is being much kinder to us this week, so all members are reminded to wear sunscreen at all times.

The heating is off and it is time for the annual boiler-scrape and polish. Any volunteers are asked to sign up as a lack of volunteers will lead to conscription.

This week's raffle prizes include

a flue brush (handy for the boiler-scrape)
six black plastic rubbish bags (ditto)
a small set of step ladders, hardly wonky at all (ditto again)
half a tin of Zebo (ditto again again)

[Lie-in King]

"Walkover" surely, m'lady?

[lady-janine]

only a suggestion your ladyship.

(gosh have just heard a great roll and peel of thunder - for real)

[ladyalex]

Just get on with your buttling, LiK and leave dealing with the raffle prizes to me..

Excelsior...do stay ....

[Lie-in King]

Tailcocks, tailcocks! Get 'em while they're scorchy, they're lovely!

[ladyalex]

That's better....

Don't mind if I do have another flagon of scorchio...it is rather good, and so cooling...

Excelsior,
i have watched this for weeks, and haven't the foggiest idea what is going on, but after a few beers it starts to make even less sense, although beers is probably not allowed, it tailcocks and any medieval food that sounds worse than onion drenched tripe,boiled in milk, served with bones from jellied eels and legs of frog.
there you are, its easy when you are pi###ed. Add your offer to Mi'ladies menu. ( at least this keeps them busy and gives their carers a night off)

[excelsior-1]

what for?

i'm a very intelligent person, but i cannot figure this out, and it is upsetting me.

in addition - if no-one will explin this to me then i see no point in joining a thread that i cannot contribute to

[flump1]

A hedonistic lifestyle ? Isn't that the order of the ancient hedons ? And a very strict order they are too. No grappling especially during prayer days.

[Mamyalynne]

Have put more ice in the punch as things are hotting up, more rum too, hic!

[ladyalex]

How very dare you , percy...carers indeed.
Are you confusing us with the residents of the home for the bewildered situated next door ?

[ladyalex]

Your contributions are already most valuable, excelsior ....

[lady-janine]

oh dear excelsior what has intelligence to do with this club? now i am confused.

[nungate]

Thought I'd like to be a hedon, but no grappling.................no fun!

Excelsior, the thing is you come in here, and just join in the general mayhem! All common sense and sensibilities are left at the moat

[Mamyalynne]

Excel

The whole concept of the club came about by accident a long time ago. Now every Saturday night we gather and gas and gab partake of good food and drink, sometimes there is entertainment.

Always a raffle, justg general fun and games.

[flump1]

excelsior 1 , the name of the club sums it up somewhat with the emphasis on mad. Please come sit by me, accept a flagon of tailcock and lets exchange idle gossip . Don't whatever you do play cards with the llama, or the cat, they both cheat.

[Mamyalynne]

We have a menagerie, a moat a frog in the conservatory, lots of distractions.

[Lie-in King]

Along with any pride or prejudice, miss nungate...

[lady-janine]

i will have to ask mi lady but if intelligence is a requirement, then i too will have to resign or be thrown out . . .. . . . . .

[Mamyalynne]

Have you been reading again??

[ladyalex]

Perhaps we could prevail upon you to give us a talk, excelsior ?
Do you have a specialist subject ?

We have had talks on knitting, crotchet and macrame in the past, and several members have shown their holiday slides.
What is your talent ?
