Welcome again, one and all on this wintry evening.
The fires are all banked up, the Aga is glowing and the warming drinks are almost ready.
Sadly the drawbridge has been frozen shut , so access can only be gained by skating over the moat.
Members are respectfully reminded to leave their skates at the door as the blades would play havoc with the parquet in the grand hall.
There are these prizes for tonight's raffle:
A fish supper. (Uneaten , still in it's original newspaper)
A hot water bottle. (Only one visible leak covered by elastoplast)
Two ounces of pink wool. (Double knitting...different batch numbers.)
Members are also reminded that the buckets in the downstairs conveniences are there for a purpose and are on no account to be used.
I think I shall sign off too. I've got a good book waiting to lull me into sleep. Night everyone, see you next week, when I hope Lady Alex will have recovered from that strenuous effort.
Talking of absences m'lady - you too will miss the pleasure of my company - if not the singing next week! I shall be having a procedure at my local NHS hostel for the wayward and unforgiving!
Miss Meg, if you consult the Rule Book, you will see that Mamya is quite correct in what she says.
I must off to bed now to rest my weary limbs after all the excitement of this evening. I think I may have a word with the superintendent next door tomorrow and ask him to strengthen his locks.
Good night everyone. Thanks for all the laughs. Be care full in the snow and ice and keep warm.
See you all next week, if we're spared :-))
Who needs a rule book meg? If there was any question of a ruling in our favour we KNOW what the ruling would be!!!
Thank you matron - I am only worried about having to behave myself - just how hard will that be? ;o) Give us yer registration number and I will let you know their response ROFL ♥
