Mad Over Fifties Club

[nungate]

Welcome to Nungate Towers for the latest meeting of AB's Mad Over Fifties Club.
After a very busy afternoon, we finally managed to get things ready in time.
Tonight's Tailcock is the "Clasico" (Barcelona 2, Real Madrid 1 whoop, whoop!) Colour me happy!
For tonight's Hot Plate Special we have chicken in a hot spicy tomato sauce. served on a bed of rice and on the pudding trolley there is a delicious sticky toffee pudding, served with custard or whipped cream (yum!)
Members will be pleased to know that our Igor has left the wheelchair behind him and now has a walking plaster and a crutch (alas he is still not permitted to wear his chains)
The hot tub is bubbling away on the north tower, the bungee is ready for bouncing (though I advise anyone using it to try to avoid the moat on the downward journey - the piranhas do bite!) Down in the dungeons, the indoor pool has had the heating turned up a little and there is a nice selection of cossies available for any member who didn't bring their own.
The Minstrels are in the gallery tuning up their usual selection of madrigals and fugues. Down in the grand ballroom, our favourite local band The Tone Deafs, is also warming up, tonight they have promised to play a selection of '60's classics.
There are roaring fires in the snug and also in the library, where members will find in addition to our vast collection of leather bound tomes, a good selection of magazines and periodicals, including the latest edition of The Arc Welder's Weekly Almanack.
For tonight's rofl, I offer
Best Beloved (he knows what he has done)
One bottle of frozen diet coke
Lady of Burlesque dvd (Barbara Stanwyck good film) faulty!
2 clips from a Beko dishwasher - broken
(been a heck of a week!)

A warm welcome awaits all who dare enter these portals

[nungate]

Yes my daughter seems to have "acquired" one of my books!

[tonyav]

Daisy, done.

Wow, I've won the Lady of Burlesque DVD.

[DaisyNonna]

Looks a bit rough out there.
Any sticky toffee pudding left?

[nungate]

A little facty fact for you Tony. The story of the film was based on a murder mystery written by none other than Gypsy Rose Lee!

[nungate]

There are plenty of guest suites ready for member who'd prefer not to venture out this night - you could even stay until the storm blows over. I hear from the forecast it might not bee too bad up this end of the country, but it's to be bad down along the south coast and up into the midlands.

[tonyav]

Ah, right. Thanks for the little facty fact, nungate.

[nungate]

Thought you'd like that - it's about murders in a burlesque house - one girl is strangled with her G-string!

[nungate]

Good night Steve, glad to have been of service, you must come frivol with us again!
