Well here we are again at the doors of Nungate Towers for tonight's meeting of the Mad Over Fifties Club.
On tonight's agenda, it's a case of anything goes!
The hot tub is bubbling away nicely on the North Tower for anyone wishing to indulge, (the mini bar up there has also been replenished) Both swimming pools (indoor and outdoor) are available for members use, as is the lake where the rowing boats are moored. Down at the beach the bathing huts are open and a barbecue has been set up for any members who fancy a bit of cooking alfresco.
Back within the confines of the Towers, the minstrels will be in the gallery as always, playing madrigals and toccatas, and in the ballroom our favourite local band, the Tone Deafs will be playing a selection of music for dancing.
Tonight's Tailcock the "Centre Court" conjures the Championship at Wimbledon in a glass - strawberries and cream, Pimms and pizza plus a few other selected ingredients known only to it's creator! On our Hot plate Special we have Queenie's favourite, Farmhouse Pasta (we went to a lot of trouble finding just the right farmhouse for this dish) on tonight's pudding trolley, we have pancakes with cherries jubilee, and ice cream. As always there will be a selection of volley vonts and canopies and sundry nibbles.
A warm welcome awaits all who dare enter these portals
