Mad Over Fifties Club
208 Answers
Time once again for Nungate Towers to open the portals for the meeting of the AB Mad Over Fifties.
For tonight's extravaganza, we have the Hot Plate Special, a lovely hot and spicy Chilli con Carne, with rice and cornbread, and of course the customary nibbles, volly vonts and canopies. On the pudding trolley tonight we have a choice of Treacle sponge and custard, or Sherry Trifle (heavy on the sherry)
The tailcock of choice this evening will be the "Nungate Sling" an interesting variation on that classic, Singapore Sling (a particular favourite of mine) The Minstrels are back again in the Gallery and tonight they are returning to their usual offerings of Madrigals and toccattas, though later on they have promised to play for us their own take on the greatest hits Boxcar Willie - could be interesting as I thought something like that would require some antiseptic, however,...........
For your further entertainment, that wonderful pair of dancers, Clarke Ruffle Horrid and his delightful dance partner, Tessie Tura the Tottenham Twirler will be giving us a dance exhibition in the ballroom followed by one to one instruction for any member wishing to take their first steps into the Terpsichorian Art. Also on offer are donkey rides down by the lake, sad to say that there can be no rally car racing round the track tonight as we are awaiting the delivery of a new rally car, since Queenie managed to write one off doing hand brake turns and ended up having an argument with a tree (she lost, so did the car....)
So, the hot tub is bubbling away in the North Tower, the mini bar has been refilled, the bungee is ready for any unwise souls willing to jump, as always the bowling alley is primed and waiting. Igor has his chains all buffed and is standing by to welcome our guests.
Murraymints has sent her apologies, owing to an urgent family matter she will not be joining us this evening (the pink sparkly is being held by Belle in the Ladies Retiring Room awaiting her return).
Be assured a warm welcome awaits all who dare enter these portals
Carriages at midnight.

tragic ain't it? I have quite a few of the film programmes, and lots of sci fi magazines/film magazines all featuring the films not to mention a full set of bubble gum cards (plus loads of spares!) Got all the books including Splinter of the Minds Eye which was supposedly intended as a low budget second film
well at least so I heard. Happy days!

Title Changed from "Revenge" to "Return"
The original teaser trailer for the film carried the name Revenge of the Jedi. [19] In December 1982 Lucas decided that “Revenge” was not appropriate and returned to his original title. However, by that time thousands of "Revenge" teaser posters (with artwork by Drew Struzan) had been printed and distributed. (Note that the poster reverses the correct color of the light sabers; Luke is seen wielding a red lightsaber while Vader wields a blue one.[20] Lucasfilm stopped the shipping of the posters and sold the remaining stock of 6,800 posters to Star Wars fan club members for $9.50.[21] These posters now sell for $250 – $500 depending on condition. (Bootlegs of these posters exist and can be differentiated.)[22]
The 2005 prequel trilogy film Revenge of the Sith later alluded to the dismissed title of Revenge of the Jedi.[23]
