Mad Over Fifties Club

[nungate]

well, here we are again. Another Saturday and time for Mad Over Fifties Club, so come on in for a giggle! Igor is on standby to collect, brooms, wellies, brollies and other sundry items, just don't hope for their safe return at the end of our evening as he likes to hide them about the Towers, and his memory isn't what it was......
Our tailcock tonight is the is the "Soggy Saturday" well named I think. It is an interesting brew with quite a kick! We also have the return of the Running Buffet - catch it if you can ...... For the less fit among us a light supper has been laid in the Snug, it includes volly vonts, horses doovers and canopies, as well as a delicious selection of other goodies.
We have a DJ booked for members wishing to dance down in the ballroom.
As always all our facilities are available to members, though I would recommend that members might prefer to remain indoors this evening in view of the inclement weather.
Queenie sends her apologies she will not be joining us this evening.
For the rofl I have:
3 bottles of Rose bubble bath (would the winner kindly refrain from tossing it in the moat or in the fountains - thank you)
Bag of odd socks - mostly left ones
12 Back issues of The Lady Magazine

A warm welcome awaits all who dare enter these portals

Hi nungate. Nice to see you too. How are you? X

[Igor61]

All be well provided Stuey sir' s Belle of the evening isn't our esteemed Housekeeper

[DaisyNonna]

Pixie, I have a spare watch if you should need one.

[nungate]

I'm as well as can be under present circumstances (you'd need to see some of my previous answers for a fuller picture - basically I'm a wreck!)

[tonyav]

Plenty of heaving down in Cornwall then, DT. don't know why but sea shanty's come to mind.

[pixie373]

Lol. Thank you daisy. Getting confused with GMEB- i fell asleep this afternoon...

[pixie373]

I have seen a few, nungate, i hope you get the treatment you need soon x

[DaisyNonna]

Careful Tony, no heaving if you please. Some of us are not good sailors.

[tonyav]

40 50 or 60 winks, pixie ?.

[tonyav]

Thats ok Daisy, just don't do any heaving in my bucket. Don't mind the yo hoing though.

[DaisyNonna]

Tiddly Tony?

[pixie373]

About 12, tony. Youngest woke me up "accidentally" saying he needed to go to the park. In the torrential rain.

[nungate]

Got my stick got my painkillers, I'm semi mobile now so I'm happy enough.
I'll get treatment whenever. This time last week it couldn't come quick enough, this week not so much

[DaisyNonna]

Garden too dry and soil too cracked.

[tonyav]

Tiddly Tony !, haven't been called that by a girl for a few years now, Daisy ;-)


Needed to go to the park, thats a good one pixie.

[nungate]

Didn't all that rain water the garden Daisy? Or was it too dry and simply ran off?

[DTCwordfan]

Been really nice here today, pixie...not a drop of water touched my lips, my head or feet....a shanty, tony? Here we are:

It's time to go MoFC now,
Haul away your Soggy anchor,
Haul away your Soggy anchor,
It's our tailcocking time.

Get some asquith sail upon her,
Haul away your Igor halyards,
Haul away your Igor halyards,
It's our tailcocking time.

Get her on her daisy meandering course now,
Haul away your tony foresheets,
Haul away your tony foresheets,
It's their Villa tailcocking time.

Waves of bubble bath are surging under,
Haul away down Nungate's Forth Channel,
Haul away down Queenie's Channel,
On the MoFC evening tide.

When your tailcocking's over,
Haul away for pixie's soporific bed and Heaven,
Haul away for pixie's soporific bed and Heaven,
the white telephone be by your side.

It's not time to go now,
Haul away your Soggy anchor,
Haul away your Soggy anchor,
It's our MoFC tailcocking time.
