Tonight's The Night! The evening of the Mad Over Fifties Christmas Ball has arrived! Time for all the Mad Over Fifties to put on their finest suits and poshest frocks and join the festivities here at Nungate Towers.
The Towers are bedecked in tinsel and fairy lights Christmas trees are all around the Towers, Igor has put on his festive chains and is ready in the vestibule with trays of mulled wine and Christmas carol tailcocks. The Minstrels are back in the gallery, tonight they are joined by the local symphony orchestra who will be playing a selection of Seasonal songs and waltzes. Later on it's time to rock the old Towers and Rocky Road will be here with his mobile disco.
Tables are groaning under the weight of all the festive fayre imaginable, capons, and turkeys, hams and pies. Puddings and trifles mince pies and
truffles - a feast for the eyes and for the stomach!
Come and join the happy Mad over fifties for tonight's extravagana!
We have actually planned a Secret Santa with all the rofl contributions tonight. Being the season of goodwill we didn't want anyone to leave these hallowed halls without a prize - Belle Epoque will be superivising in the blue drawing room, and every guest will also leave with a selction box .......
Good evening Polar Bear. Thank you for arranging the snow for tonight. Can't have you getting homesick, did you find the refridgerated parking space for your 'berg? Would you like a refreshment? We have mulled wine or tonight's spectacular tailcock the Christmas Carol, and feel free to help yourself to the splendours of the groaning tables...........

as tonight is a special gathering of the club, dare we hope that you are taking notes in order to compose an ode of the evening within the next day or so?
twill be not tonight as I am steaming here, not the alcohol kind, but the cold form and may have to retire soon.....an injection of truffle flavoured ibuprofen coming up may be adviseable.
