Mad Over 50's Club now open.

[Mamyalynne]

Once more I throw open the doors and welcome you to pop in for a chat and maybe share a tailcock or too. Her Ladyship and His Lordship are still otherwise engaged and the notion of my position is being pushed to it's utmost.
The long Gallery is currently out of bounds due to the rampant dry rot, a donations box is in the vestibule for contributions to the restoration fund. Therefore drinks and nibbles (of which there is a plethora, thanks to guidance from Mercia) are served in the Billiard room, please do not uncover the baize or I will end up paying.
Last week was very quiet so the raffle prizes are rolled over, I can however add;
A pincushion
half bottle of syrup of figs
and a bath plug. (other donations welcome)
So enjoy.

Lol ttfn, yes they did say that and then sniggered as he escorted me here!!

[ttfn]

It it so quaint here mamy - a pan tree - is that similar to, but different from a clothes horse? So if the pans go on the tree where do you put your lids?
Worked it out all by myself - they go on your eye level grill - boom boom

[alexanderd]

put your top down Matron there are gentlemen present, well me anyway

[Mamyalynne]

Do beg your pardon Alex I was forgetting myself there (and I wear a name badge too) ttfn well worked out indeed.

[slinky.kate]

right 'thats the washing in and away,my neighbour helped me carry it upstairs,was'nt that nice of her.i could be doing with a wee top up now,when is the raffle i have numbers purple

[ttfn]

Fear not Alex a top up is better than bottoms up or down. Cheers mamya (hic)
No news of flicrat, or gran this week - hope the drawbridge hasn't been elevated - gran isn't very tall you know and that water sits just above mud level. Talking of grounds - has the lawn totally recovered now mamya?

[slinky.kate]

mamya when i say top up' i mean a refill,stop lifting your top up.

[ttfn]

^ the pink cheeks are a dead give away, are they not kate?

[Mamyalynne]

Will put a cardi on, have another do!

[Meg]

Good heavens mamya, you are forgetting yourself with the aristos being absent. Please pull yourself together and remember your station.

[ttfn]

[hetherington]

Hello all, is it alright if I just pop in for a quick night cap - and a chance to win the bath plug -

[slinky.kate]

why you putting the cardiogram on,did you pinch it from the hospital,yes ttfn,i am feeling rather flushed,but i think its just the weather

[alexanderd]

No need for a cardi Matron the oil heater is working this week. Cleaned the flu and fitted a new wick

[slinky.kate]

just looking at my tesco vouchers and i have a pound off a bottle of spumante sparkling wine,so i will bring it in for the raffle next week

[ttfn]

There was an echo kate - I had one this week too - fancy that - no thanks.
Welcome Hetherington - a plug? Does a polce constabule not take your eye tonight? Have a drink, it is help ourselves tonight, but you may help me to another, I don't mind if you do.

[Mamyalynne]

hetherington do have a tipple, have you bought your tickets dear?

[slinky.kate]

alex i did'nt recognise you there,why is your face all black? had your head up the chimney again

[ttfn]

polce is 'speak' for police (somewhere in the world I expect).
Mind you I don't know if the plug is left or right thread - are you ambidextrous?

[Meg]

Hi hetherington, welcome. Just nick the bath plug no one will notice!!

I can't access the last page. Don't know why I'm asking cause if anyone suggests I won't be able to hear them. Oh dear, oh dear.
