Mad over Fifties Club
292 Answers
The Club is now Open
Welcome one and all, old and older, mad and madder to our delightful club.
We have been experiencing some difficulties here at the Club HQ with the electrical apparatus , notably the light switches. The only explanation given so far by the electrical tradesman is 'gremlins'.
Consequently, members are warned to be very careful with water this week.
So far for the raffle we have :
1 sporran (badger head still relatively intact)
4 brass buttons (in need of polish)
a tube of fruit gums (only orange ones )

Good evening Milady, Butler and all guests - as befits the dreary weather the buffet table is adorned with warming goodies, grilled Goats cheese with chilli bread rolls, usual voltra vons and a large pan of Bolognese for later.
The tailcock tonight is Zoom, a spritely number that will keep us on our toes and get the circulation moving.
For the Rofl
carrier bag of goose feathers (last time they wake me at 7am)
Umbrella (spokeless)
a dozen bun cases
2 tailcock swizzle stick wotsnames
3 straws
Let us have fun.

Good evening m'lady, Matron and guests. For the rofl I can offer -
Elastic bands - most still have some stretch in them
Assorted paper clips - some haven't been straightened
A giant green eraser, shaped like a brick - a brick would probably do the job with more precision...
I shall begin serving & hiding immediately.

hello my good colleagues, bad news I may purvey as your bard may not be here the next two Saturdays, certainly not in two weeks as I have been summoned to the fest of rowing at Henley to partake genteely of the champers and Pimmsy tailcocks on Laddies Day.
Next Saturday maybe or maybe not, depending on the house-sitting.
In view of this event, in the Abingdon area, as of Monday late pm, I offer you a little ditty to start this fair evening:
(thanks in part to John Bruce Norton –ex Mad Over 100er and now dead)
River, who with thy two soul-stirring excelsior names
Speak'st, one of mamyalynne's youthful tailcocks’ dream,
And one of bananas as well as Humbersloopy's mighty stream
At proud Lie-in-King's foot,—Isis, and Thames,—
From Godstow-on-Gness, where the fairest of frail dames,
pray, who is Godstow and why on top of gness? The result of visiting Honiton in the fair county of Ratter and Carakeel?
Alba, with epitaph courteous lies,
Down to the reach where the nungate ties
Her boat for Lady A's summer feast and llama games,
These are the limits of my Isis: there,
Or up or down, The Bard clefts his petal-oared way
Nightly, alone, with little petal heed or nonna care,
Through the full stream with polar-bear cutters gay;
Oft laughing at the imperious tenrec's shout,
As from his very seadogg bows the Bard glided out!
