Mad Over 50's Club now open.

[Mamyalynne]

Once more I throw open the doors and welcome you to pop in for a chat and maybe share a tailcock or too. Her Ladyship and His Lordship are still otherwise engaged and the notion of my position is being pushed to it's utmost.
The long Gallery is currently out of bounds due to the rampant dry rot, a donations box is in the vestibule for contributions to the restoration fund. Therefore drinks and nibbles (of which there is a plethora, thanks to guidance from Mercia) are served in the Billiard room, please do not uncover the baize or I will end up paying.
Last week was very quiet so the raffle prizes are rolled over, I can however add;
A pincushion
half bottle of syrup of figs
and a bath plug. (other donations welcome)
So enjoy.

[slinky.kate]

[ttfn]

By the way kate leave that small bottle of Angelsey Bitters alone (it is syrup of figs) yuk

[alexanderd]

ttfn i like it can you write it down for me please?

[slinky.kate]

i thought it was a rum dip

[Meg]

Smoking jacket could be the word Alex.
Why did they call them that, people smoked indoors then.
Kate, hello extremely rude of me not to say hello before.
Right mamya, what have you put in these tailcocks tonight, They are very good!! Slurppppppppppp

[ttfn]

Are you leaving before the draw Hetherington - you might get that plug yet. Kate my crisps are Smiths thru and thru - I love the blue bags of salt. I put them on the slugs down by the moat - mind you don't slip on one and keep your wellies on (they can come up between your toes you know)

[ttfn]

Can you not just photstat it Alex - I had trouble with it the first time. I do let my imagination run away with me sometimes - but apparently not fast enough. Is mamya alright under the billiard baize blanket? (try saying that quickly after the number I have downed tonight)

[hetherington]

darn I thought I was being clever and sneaking off with it so what have I got in my pocket if not the plug! oh it's one of Alex's hobnobs

[slinky.kate]

okey dokey but i think i need to get carried home at this rate

[ttfn]

I had a smoking jacket once meg - I burnt a piece of string to severe if from the ball (no scissors) and put the ball in my pocket. It was a lined jacket and smoked very well. I am now very con - fused. Boom boom

[slinky.kate]

[ttfn]

ALex would you mind being a gent and sounding the J Arthur dinner gong to rouse mamya from her slumber - we need her to win the drawing ticket - well something similar. At least it will be a fair draw if Lady Alex isn't doing it hruuuuummmmph

[Meg]

soz mamya.

[ttfn]

Beg pardon meg? I am not raffling my drawers for anyone tonight and I think poor Alex has seen quite enough of that sort of behaviour already
