Mad Over Fifties Club

[nungate]

Good evening and welcome to Nungate Towers for tonight's meeting of AB's Mad Over Fifties Club.
Igor is on standby at the entrance to welcome you and take care of your coats, cloaks and broomsticks all of which he will conceal in a variety of crooks and nannies throughout the Towers, whether they are seen again will be purely accidental!
Tonight's Tailcock will be the "Waterloo Sunset" a small tribute to the inimitable Ray Davies of the Kinks.
Our hot plate special tonight will be a Chicken Chasseur - you catch it and you can eat it!! Of course there will be the world famous (here at AB) volley vonts, canopies and horses doovers. On the pudding trolley we have a white chocolate bread and butter pudding (made with croissants for that continental touch [i and white chocolate chips)
Queenie sends her regrets, she is away from home this weekend staying with friends, her father and I are glad of the peace and quiet ....... [i] cricket.... cricket... cricket [i]
The Minstrels are back in the gallery all ready to start with their customary madrigals and toccattas ... [i] one of these days I'm going to loosen the screws on that gallery ..... ] Down in the Ballroom we have engaged the services of a wandering DJ or mobile Disco for those members wishing to dance, boogie whatever (just keep it on the vertical guys ok?)
The indoor pool is ready and waiting for members wishing a swim, the hot tub is still keeping him company as is the mini bar. The library is available for members, we have a great selection of books, magazines and periodicals, I understand we have had the latest edition of "Needlepoint for Wheeltappers" delivered - a right riveting read I'll be bound! I'm delighted to say that Triffid in the conservatory "enjoyed" the company of the person wearing the green hat .... don't know who it was but if they can collect their green hat from Belle in the vestibule otherwise it will be put in the Lost property Cupboard. I have asked nicely, Do Not Feed the
Triffid [i
A warm welcome awaits all who dare enter these portals

[i] Would members please refrain from throwing litter into the moat, it gives the piranhas indigestion, thank you ]
