As I am sure you will all have noticed, we have got the bunting out and the hall is totally jubilantly decked. The red white and blue theme has been continued with jubilation throughout the building and even the stables have been repainted puce (which is the colour we got when we mixed the red white and blue paints).
Members who wish to identify themselves as jubilarians may do so by signing the Big Book on the sideboard in the lower lesser grand ballroom.
Tonight's jubilar raffle so far has for prizes:
1 silver jubilee mug (slightly cracked)
1 golden jubilee tea towel (slightly washed out)
14 Union Jack flags (all full size)
6 red buttons
7 white gloves (some pairs)
8 blue berets (the hats, not the men)
My apologies Ladyship. I humbly felt that having risen to the task with such grace, humour and dedication a small reward was in order. But if I have offended you I will give up my Fondant Fancy in Tenric`s honour.
so sorry to be so late joining you and purveying the glorious ruffles but ihav een occupied with jubliatioin thingies. please may i have some tailcock and two books of rifler tickets?
Must comment that you all seem to have been having a wondrously jolly time.
no rain or cowes doing what they do in france. bright and dry outside. have just checked and even placed this ladyship's body outside just to make sure.
Of course you may leave early, tenrec. It has been an absolute joy to be your employer.
Thank you so much for your services and, of course, for your salary.
Apology accepted , gness...I get a bit touchy about people fiddling hte raffle.
Welcome lady janine to this most jubilant of evenings.
by and large yes, Lady J, except for Daisy, whose nose seems to have been put out of joint by me and I have absolutely no idea why.......anybody else read anything into the exchanges in the last 20 mins that could explain her rather (too?) strong reaction....
What sort of books do you enjoy reading Daisy? I downloaded a really good one this week - didn't take me too long to read and I have another to start as soon as I get a little time to myself
Thank you Ladyalex. Now if someone will roll out the barrel and help me up I shall collect the broomstick and make my way home. After collecting wiffle prizes of course.
Worry not DT. Has happened before and for no reason. You have been most gentlemanly and if you could just pull a little harder and perhaps lift the settle......
