Mad over Fifties Club

[ladyalex]

The Club is now Open

Welcome once again to all members old and older.

The Committee have not met this week as we were inquorate.
Do not concern yourselves about this, though, dear members. A doctor was consulted and measures have been put in place.


For tonight's raffle , so far we have:

A Beano Annual 2007 (mostly intact )
Three cups, two saucers and five plates (nearly matching)
Four odd gloves (brown, green, black and tan)
A football with a very small hole

[nungate]

I live in hope, Mama dear. I could use some good luck about now. I'm fed up with my fettles not being fully functional - I've pulled a muscle according to the doc

[Mamyalynne]

meh was saving up for new pom pom slippers

[Mamyalynne]

Not pulled for years nungate.

[nungate]

Ah, Mama, would you really want to? Pull that is

[Lie-in King]

Have another flagon, miss nungate - I believe that Matron has some interesting & efficacious embrocation, by the way...

[nungate]

I'm certainly up for efficacity

[Mamyalynne]

Just don't get the embrocation and Glitz mixed uup

[humbersloop]

LiK, I really do believe that sort of thing fell into disrepute with the Black Sox affair.

Alfie is safe Matron. Redemption value one matchstick = a fiver. You can stand it.

[nungate]

They're playing Georgia drops 'em? Drops what exactly? Should young Alfie be out there playing in such company?

[DaisyNonna]

Georgia? Is she American? Why have we not been introduced. Perhaps the butler could help if she keeps dropping things. Perhaps she is slightly dyspraxic. We should rally round.

[Mamyalynne]

I am worried, he is such a Mummies boy

[nungate]

You aren't one of those "helicopter" mothers, are you Mama?

[Lie-in King]

(Sigh)

Tailcocks, tailcocks! Get 'em while they're shiny, they're lovely!

Alfie appears to be having quite a lot of fun, Matron. His pile of cash seems to be growing as well...

Miss humbersloop - the otter has requested a further advance on his pocket money...

[Mamyalynne]

Not at all nungate, I have a fear of heights.

[DaisyNonna]

So no need to ask him, "What's it all about?" then Mamya.

[Mamyalynne]

If he wants to gamble, he must earn his keep.

[nungate]

I get dizzy in high heels, you are not alone

[humbersloop]

Another Glitz would be lovely LiK, and no need to stand on formality,
Miss Sloop is fine.

As the Otter will still be playing long after the drawbrdge is up, the stakes are well subbed. Perhaps a word with matron about Alfie?

[Lie-in King]

Thank you, miss Sloop - your flagon & I shall see if Matron's available for a consultation...

[Mamyalynne]

Come into my cubicle Miss Sloop...
