Good evening and welcome to Nungate Towers.
Igor is waiting by the main entrance to assist members with their coats cloaks and broomsticks, though in this pleasant warm weather he may only have to conceal broomsticks this evening.
In view of the pleasantness of the evening, I think we should all adjourn to the beach and hold our meeting there. Plant has set up the barbecue and
the coals are glowing beautifully ready for the goodies we have ready to toss on the grill. There are steaks, burgers, chicken, hot dogs you name it we probably will have it ready to barbecue, there is also a wide variety of salads and other side dishes, not forgetting the famous volly vonts, canopies and horses doovers. We have also requested the presence of Toni the Ice Man and his ice cream truck - 99's all round tonight!
Later the Tone Deafs will be playing, and they have set up a makeshift stage on the beach and will be playing a variety of summer time hits from days gone by............. the Minstrels can set up in the gallery with their usual madrigals and tocattas but they will only be playing to the portraits on the walls as we shall all be down by the sea, paddling! (one of these days I'll find out how they are getting in!) For those members not wishing to indulge themselves by the sea, the gardens are looking particularly pretty and we have set up a marquee in the grounds serving suppers and there will also be a mobile disco arriving later for dancing!
There are plenty of other outdoor diversions for our members, the race track is just waiting for racers to grab a cars for a few circuits of the track,
the maze is open too (keep turning left) We have just opened up the pink grotto to visitors, George the Dragon having gone on his holidays means members are permitted a peek at his far from humble home (just do not touch his treasure otherwise he will be back in a heartbeat, and I prefer guests ungrilled!)
As part of our usual fare the library is open to members as is the gym, indoor pool and other various diversions. It is a bit too warm in the conservatory but the Triffid is thriving, and the spider monkey is enjoying the extra heat.
I hope Queenie will be along later to tell us of the bit of excitement we had earlier on this week - which I found quite funny - she didn't!
For the rofl tonight I offer:
Half a dozen cardboard boxes (empty)
1 metre black fabric with gold stars (project didn't work!)
another bag of odd socks......
A warm welcome awaits all who dare enter these portals
carriages at midnight

The wedding cake will be home made Tony. I made the one for my mum's wedding when she married my step father. It was fabulous, though I say so myself, will use the same recipe for Queenie's as and when necessary. I remember having to separate 2 dozen eggs and the whites where whipped up and folded in right at the end - a really rich fruit cake but it was really light and not heavy/stodgy
You bet Tony. It was the mixingof the thing that was the problem. The mixture got too much for my mixing bowl, and I didn't have anything bigger, thought we'd have to scour the sink and finish mixing it there! Then OH came up with a cunning plan I should use the pan I used to make jam! Worked a treat. When I think back to all the things I used to be able to do. I had a young girl, I could work, bake, make jam, clean the house all those sorts of things - nowadays it's a red letter day if I can fasten my own underwear!!
