Mad Over 50's Club now open

[Mamyalynne]

Good evening everyone - as her Ladyship is otherwise engaged, it falls to me to welcome you here tonight. A slight upturn in the weather has prompted a most summery buffet with an assortment of crustless sandwiches, various fillings to suit all tastes too. Voltra vons it goes without saying also make an appearance....for dessert Strawberries loom large, a wonderful Pavlova with lashings of cream and of course the more simple Strawberry and cream combo for the less adventurous, A large flagon of spiced Pimms for a refreshing boost and a brand new Tailcock - the Murray, a well practised recipe showing signs of improvement , may well develop fully soon but still drinkable in it's immature state.

For the Rofl

6metres of netting
White line paint
3 shuttlecocks (bald)
7 Croquet hoops ( never was any good at sport)


Apologies already in from Excel

although i'll not be at tonight's MOFC (as previously stated) because of the early night i must have - on account of tomorrow.
i would still like to donate some prizes for the blaffle.

so i have sent to the manor - via courier - the following:-

my recently expired car tax disc
a klingon-english dictionary
the dressing from my arm, used after i gave blood last week
dvd of 'the shawshank redemption' (i had two)
used question sheets from my last quiz night.

hope the evening goes well, and give my regards to all attendees, please.

So settle in and have a natter.

[Lie-in King]

Good evening Matron & guests.

For the rofl, I can offer the following -

2 tickets to something called "Centre Court", dated 8th July 2012
Left-handed umbrella - only a few holes in it
New balls - handy for playing with, I'm told

I shall commence serving tailcocks & hiding coats, umbrellas, boots - anything at all, really...

Buenos Noches tout le monde

I'm afraid I am still on "soft stuff only" after my dentition revision - so I have brought my own tin of Rice Pudding and some Jam in a little plastic thingy. If the chef could stick them in the nuclear furnace for a couple of pings please.

I have for the ruffles :

One Cadbury Chocolate Eclair - previously owned - may contain toothy bits

One copy of "50 shades of grey" - slightly foxed (at least I think that is what the previous owner said)

One water butt - surplus to requirements - winner to collect from the new lake.

Thank You Matron - a large grumpy murray please - and a neep-on-a-stick if you would be so kind ...

[Mamyalynne]

Certainly Mr Dave, a tincture to swill around your cavities will be just the remedy.

[Lie-in King]

Good evening sir - one flagon of Murray & may I please take those dripping leathers? I have brought a dressing gown in case it should be required...

[DTCwordfan]

Ahoy to all of you and I am returned from my sojourn in the Oxford wilderness to the hallowed turf and tile of the Castle. Greetings abound and aplenty.

I had the distinct pleasure of partaking with the hoi-polloi of the demure Royal Enclosure at Henley and therefore my riffle offerings are a selection of purloined and borrowed items with a rowing theme

One broken deck chair
One door with a brassplate engraved “Leander Bar” - broken window
One empty Pimms Bottle
One empty Bollie bottle
One half drunk ice tea
One of gness’s banned miniskirts
One half eaten three-cheese & prawn Quiche
One used Henley Royal Enclosure badge
One Corpus Christie tie, cut half way up
Forty corks (good for any Down-Under ABers)
One striped blazer in pink, yellow and shocking tinkerbell green
One HRR traffic cone
Half a Policeman’s helmet
One crocodile Choo shoe, stiletto half missing
One pair of knickers, size 8, from back of the Ladies, tagged Pippa M
Steve Redgrave’s broken oar

And I donate a rowing skiff for the Moat plus harpoon. (I shall enjoying using this on ABers and others who take a swim to disturb his Crocadom).

A bucket of the furry murry please, Buttle - is this a dastardly nungate creation.....I see his Tyke namesake is in with a chance as the Castle antics unfold.

[Lie-in King]

Nice to see you back, Mr DT - your "Best Bard In The World" flagon, duly filled with Murray...

[flump1]

Good Evening all, how good to see you.
I would like a large Murray very much while I disrobe the poncho ( slightly soggy) and put wiffle prizes in the hall.
Tonight I have bought 3 ping pong paddles, a golf bat and a snooker stick. Let's get sporty shall we.

[DTCwordfan]

A little rowing number awaits, Lie-In King....the Bard has been active. I shall wait to see if I have missed any early arrivals to the Castle beano.....what's in this murray crap/chap.....scotch/baileys/irn bru/Tennants/haggis juice?

[sunny-dave]

Thank you for the towelling down Mr King - I have my own sarong in my top-box - under the Gold Flip-Flops if you would be so kind.

Evening Sir DT - did you see the size of the pants on the Williams wench this afternoon - 'new balls please' indeed

[Lie-in King]

Good evening Miss flump - your flagon of Murray. The poncho is looking a tad weary, might I suggest a spell in the airing cupboard to perk him up?

[tonyav]

A very good evening your matronship and Mr Lie-In King, I apologise for my lateness, for tonight's riffle I have one distributor cap and three HT leads suitable for a 1968 Ford Escort 1100cc also one day saver bus ticket dated 06/07/2012.
Could I try a flagon of the lovely sounding tailcock the Murray and a bucket of the strawberry and cream combo if you please.
Also your matronship would it be possible for me to request a disc to be spun for me later on your goodnight thread it is Little Anthony and the Imperials, Better Use Your Head. TIA.

[Mamyalynne]

My goodness has it started to rain again?? All these soggy arrivals, I maybe light the garden chimbley thing so we can sit and toast ourselves dry.

[Lie-in King]

DT - Matron's recipes are secret, as well you know...

Mr Dave - your sawrong, sir. I must hasten back to the kitchen with the tongs, they belong to Matron...

[Mamyalynne]

Request received and placed by my decks Mr Tony, bucket of S&C combo coming up.

[sunny-dave]

Oooh Matron - can we have marshmallows onna stick - pleeeeaaassse

[DTCwordfan]

Indeed I did, young Sir, and a fine pair of head-gripping thighs there....to the point of instant death, I would surmise.

As we are talking "le tennis" and we boys, I would substitute the bucket of Murray for a similar bucket of "Juicy Lucy".......

[Mamyalynne]

For you Dave - yes!!

[Lie-in King]

Good, the plumber's arrived. A flagon first sir, then we're under orders from m'lady to make sure you get on with the guttering, sorry...

[Mamyalynne]

Melted chocolate and sprinkles for dip dip, that is for the Marshmallows only please!

[DTCwordfan]

Of course, Buttle, I am postulating, the taste of Baileys could come from the love juice of the lesser spotted Irish camel
