Good evening and welcome to Nungate Towers and tonight's meeting of AB's Mad Over Fifties Club.
Igor is again lurking by the main entrance waiting for members to arrive and divest themselves of their coats, cloaks and broomsticks which he will then convey to their various places of concealment all over the Towers. members are reminded that there is no guarantee of the safe return of the outer garments at the end of our evening
Our Tailcock this evening is an interesting brew, the "Drowsy Droplet" guaranteed to keep you AWAKE!! (a misnomer if ever there was one!)
Tonight's Hot Plate Special is a delicious chicken casserole with dumplings.
As always there will be our famous volly vonts, horses doovers and canopies, on the pudding trolley we have a wonderful sherry trifle
There will be dancing down in the Ballroom to the wonderful sounds of the
Bert Kampfire orchestra, so come on down and dance! They've done it again! The Minstrels have found their way in and are busy setting up in the gallery to give us the usual round of madrigals and toccattas, if I ever find out how they get in ......... [i
As ever, all facilities at the Towers are open to our members. The indoor pool does enjoy company and is looking forward to members going for a swim, (we do have swimsuits available for members who did not bring one with them) Our well stocked library is also at the disposal of our members as is the games room and the and the gym. The hot tub is bubbling away nicely on top of the north tower, with his ever present companion the mini bar (restocked as always) and atop the highest tower the bungee is waiting for the brave or stupid to make their first jump over the moat (which is filled
with piranhas) As a treat tonight we have organised A ghost walk, our resident Towers ghost Sir Cumference had again been joined by his good friend Sir Kitt who has come on a visit, they have promised to make the ghost hunt an exciting experience (Igor has loaned them his spare set of chains!) Members who visit the conservatory are again reminded not to feed the Triffid, and moreover if they do feed the Triffid, kindly refrain from giving it Haribo jelly sweets! [i] the mess by the Triffid after eating them has to be seen to be believed glad I don't clean it up ]
Though the evening may be a tad chilly, the gardens and grounds are open to members as is the beach and the race track or any members wishing to go for a wander around - wrap up warm won't you?
Queenie sends her apologies but she has again deserted the Towers in favour of a speedway meeting, she may look in later when she returns.

For the rofl tonight I offer:
small bag of loose threads (variety of colours)
empty needle packet
pack of rusty pins
tape measure (markings rubbed off)
unfinished stitched picture of a teddy bear (chart lost or mislaid or something)

A warm welcome awaits all who dare enter these portals

G'night, DT, good luck with your network adaptor.
Question Author
Good night DT, I hope you get things sorted with the networks and all that stuff.

Sleep well

Where did you all go? Spooky. Had to use Search to get back to you.
I see our guests have gone off on a ghost hunt Madame, shall I have a quick tidy round the room? Get some buckets washed?
Question Author
Sounds a bit odd that Daisy, we've not moved.

Igor, that would be a nice idea, get Dyson to help you and bring in fresh buckets and plates, thank you Igor
Night DT. Frightening to lose everybody. You were not showing up under latest posts.
Question Author
There was probably a lull in the proceedings, everyone had gone off to do other things, dancing, ghost hunting you know.....that could explain it.
We can always be found in Quizzes and Puzzles though if all else fails
Lost everything after I said see you later.
Question Author
That's not so good Daisy, a computer glitsch?
No idea!
Anyway Sir Cumference and Sir Kitt were delightful. Had expected bats in the belfry, not the cellars.
Only fell over twice!
Was a bit perturbed to see pink cobwebs but they were at pains to explain their use of candy floss. Ribena for blood spots! Right colour and sticky.
Loved the Blue Bells, pity they wilt so fast in the dark and don't make much noise.
How did they manage to appropriate a skeleton labelled property of of the anatomy department?
The chains were superb. A credit to Igor. Shame each howl ended in a giggle but you can't have everything.
We did broach a bottle of claret and have decided to have a picnic when the weather is a little more clement.
There you go Madame, all the buckets washed and ready, fresh plates and cutlery. I have refilled the drinks trolley and checked everything in the food trolley too, Dyson has been a great help, I miss Frank now that he has had to return to college. Is there anything else?
May I have a volly Igor? Missed dinner somehow.
Question Author
Well done Igor, everything looks marvellous, thank you, and thank Dyson for me too won't you?

Sir Kitt always manages to bring Sir Cumference out of his unsocial ways, he has a tendency to lurk down there in the cellars on his own, the skeleton must have been a recent acquisition, as Horace certainly doesn't have anything written upon his bones. The "boys" did try to make things a bit special for the ghost walk thing, I'm glad you enjoyed the claret too. You'd better make your picnic a moonlight one as the "boys" area bit reticient about appearing in daylight, though a moonlight picnic in the grounds sounds delightful, we may expand that idea and have a meeting out under the moon and stars
I shall prepare you a plate Madame Daisy, give me but a moment
Lovely idea nun. Who, may I ask is Horace?
Question Author
He's another of the Towers spooks though he is simply a skeleton, he just lurks down there he even more shy than Sir Cumference, he doesn't bother anyone at all, keeps very much to himself, the indoor pool has tried to befriend him but to no avail, shame really as they all reside in the dungeons
Madame, I have often said you should post a Guide to the Towers and all it's residents, living, dead and other
Question Author
I know Igor, one day perhaps, and perhaps one day we shall finish your memoir too
Nothing simple about a skeleton. An amazing example of bio-engineering.
Question Author
wonderful piece of engineering in all truth Daisy
