Mad Over Fifties Club

[nungate]

Good evening and welcome to Nungate Towers for tonight's meeting of the Mad Over Fifties Club.
Igor is at the main entrance, eagerly waiting for members to arrive so he may relieve them of their coats, cloaks and broomsticks ready for their concealment in a variety of places throughout the Towers known only to himself (members are reminded that their items are left at their own risk and the management cannot guarantee their safe retrieval at the end of our revels)
Tonight's Tailcock will be the "Black Cloud" as I am currently under one my team having thrown away their chance of a title this season. Roll on season 2014/15 and better things!
Our Hot Plate Special Tonight will be roast chicken with all the usual trimmings, of course there will also be our world famous volly vonts, canopies and horses doovers. On the pudding trolley tonight we have Lemon Meringue pie, with strawberries fresh from our very own green houses, and whipped cream.
Members are welcome to try any and all of the facilities here at the Towers.
The indoor pool in the dungeons awaits his first swimmers (we have swimsuits available for those who didn't bring one with them, indoor pool doesn't approve of skinny dipping) The bungee is ready, with new elastics atop the highest Tower, (beware of the piranhas in the moat) and on the North Tower you will find the hot tub and mini bar. Members are welcome to wander the grounds and gardens, and by the lake the rowing boats are ready for use, as is the race track, race cars are also prepared ready for members wishing to try their hand at racing. Indoors we have usual treats. Playing in the Ballroom tonight are Alf Rodrigues and his Latin Banditos, for members who might fancy tripping the light fantastic, later on we may have some karaoke. Yet again the Minstrels have managed to circumvent the security measures and are setting up to give us the usual fare of madrigals and toccattas! how are they managing to get in?
Members are requested not to feed the Triffid in the conservatory, but we have left out some fruit etc. for the spider monkey who may come down to be fed by hand. This and many other treats are available to members. Why not have a stroll down to the stables and meet the Llamas, alpacas and Spot the Zebra? We also have nice little herd of goats who were left with us for a brief spell but who are still with us and have multiplied! We're keeping the babies!

for the rofl tonight I offer:
a back four defence with more holes in it than my kitchen sieve
a referee in need of a guide dog (there's no way that goal was offside!)
and a
very large boot for booting the backsides of players who are in need of a good boot up the proverbial!

A warm welcome awaits all who dare enter these portals though if anyone from A Madrid looks near, the cannons have been loaded


carriages at midnight

balmy air? Not too balmy this evening Daisy, bit on the cool side, it tried to rain this afternoon too, came to naught in the end. I need a good day on Monday but I may not get it ...... garage needs a clear out and I need to be able to shift some broken white goods from the back of the house via the garage to the front for collection by the council and I may not have a nice dry day in which to do it! After organising an assistant for best beloved too!

[DaisyNonna]

Does your council charge much nun?

[tonyav]

Hang on Daisy, I'll join you I could do with a breath of fresh air it's been Red hot here today. We could maybe have a spin around the ballroom later when Alf Rodrigues and his Latin Banditos strike up a tune.

[DTCwordfan]

I'm yawning - I need air.......is there a tailcock with that in?

[tonyav]

Blimey nungate, in my neck of the woods one of the local scrap metal dealers would take the broken White goods away for nothing !, people just leave them out the front of their houses and hey presto within a couple of hours they have disappeared.

[DaisyNonna]

Fine by me Tony. AS long as we can avoid the karaoke. Would have said it's not my cup of tea but I never drink it.

[tonyav]

Bound to be, DT.
Have you got your car back yet ?.

[nungate]

They introduced a fairly hefty charge but had to scrap it because people refused to pay and took their stuff to the dump themselves - it was cheaper to hire a van or a trailer. So they stopped charging fairly recently and have a backlog to catch up on, mine will be removed on 26th June so if we get the garage cleared the broken things will be hauled out for removal via the garage otherwise it'll all have to come through the house, the thing is my new freezer if cluttering my kitchen as the garage is such a mess (getting the old stuff out) that there's no room out there so I need it sorted asap.
Nephew is coming on Monday to help Best beloved with the clear out, as usual I shall be there in a surpervisory capacity only (I'd only drop everything anyway!)

[tonyav]

Ok then, Daisy, have another bucket of tailcock first then as opposed to a cup of tea.

[nungate]

a lot of air in the black cloud DT it has to be whisked to get the fluffiness of the cloud you see.

[DaisyNonna]

Costs an arm and a leg (both of which I need) to get rid of anything here.

[DaisyNonna]

Excellent idea Tony!

[nungate]

Might be cheaper to hire a van when you need things removed Daisy.
BTW I loathe tea too ...... will drink coffee occasionally - so why did I buy a set of coffee cups and saucers the other day?

[queenofmean]

Evening all

[tonyav]

so why did I buy a set of coffee cups and saucers the other day?


C'os they had a pretty pattern on them ?.

[DTCwordfan]

yep, tone....

fight going on here about pill taking, so please excuse the delay in responding....!

[tonyav]

HI Hi here she is, hello Queenie. Have you been to the speedway tonight ?.

[tonyav]

Hope you win the fight, DT.

[nungate]

I know you will win DT!

[DaisyNonna]

Hire a van? Need a man to go with it too! Won't carry stuff down from a first floor flat either. Stymied.
Hi queenie. How's life?
