The house feels rather empty now that everyone has gone away after the Christmas/New Year break, but that will soon be remedied when Club Members arrive.
Please feel free to eat up the remaining cake etc as it is already out of date.
However, do not offer any to lordalex or Uncle Joe, as they have decided to restrict their intake of cake for a few weeks. (Trouble with their bottom waistcoat buttons they say.)
As there are several rollover raffle prizes languishing in the boot room, there is no need for Members to bring contributions this week ...unless, of course, they would like to contribute to the building fund or the garden fund or the animal feed fund or the holiday fund.....Mamyalynne will show you the Direct Debit forms in the Upper Study.
New members are always welcome. Qualifications and certifications may be presented to any Committee member for scrutiny.
Oh, sorry alex, much worse than I thought then. I got the impression that matron was doing a bit of needlework and left her needle in an awkward place.
good evening Anne no bargains to be had I,m afraid but there is always next week. Mamy I did send you flowers to show there were no hard feelings(only sore ones)
Did matron also inject whatever was in the needle alex?
My lady, you will definitely need a hoist to get me up from here, wish I never tried it now. Should have known my old bones would let me down plus all that weight I put on over Christmas. I blame Mamya's tailcocks and chocolates. She should have stopped me eating all the stuff that was left..
I think it is cruel to go on raking up the past in this way. Forgive and forget I say. After all what's a week in a daze to the over fifties......pretty much business as usual.
And me - no more. I felt like that raven that kept saying nevermore then. Don't ask me what story he was in I've forgotten, as I do with almost everything. Just give me a minute . . . .
