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

nungate, can you not go to bed before hubby comes home :?
Question Author
I must be a true European at heart Daisy as all the places I've been or want to visit are all in Europe never much further than that. Could also be due to the fact that I find flying tedious and the thought of being on a plane for hours and hours makes me feel ill - they'd have to knock me out so I would be asleep for the whole trip if I were to fly any further, a bored and fed up Nungate is not a happy prospect as a passenger! Kashmir though, interesting place if they have stopped fighting over it.......
Question Author
I could Anne, but I hate the thought of him coming home to a house in darkness and all that besides no matter how hard he tried not to, he would wake me when he came to bed and then I'd never get back to sleep, we've tried this before, didn't really work as I couldn't drop back off again. It might help if I could stay in bed past 9.00 in the morning but I can't seem to manage to sleep so late in the morning, such is life. who know there might be something good on tv tomorrow than I can maybe sleep through
Seems to be fairly safe now but doubt if my lungs could cope.
Flown to Canada and back, to S.A. and back with a 1 year old and then back with her. (husband stayed in S.A.) flew alone to Egypt and back. Not all that keen on flying. Would like to go to New Zealand but preferably not alone.
Question Author
I really don't mind flying, but I really find it boring as h*ll - no scenery to look at as there would be on a train, bus or car, nothing but fluffy clouds.
I can sit in the car travelling for hours and hours and not bother, just find a plane to be confining and restrictive
I just immerse myself in a book (can read on plane, train or car) or Kindle. Panic stations lost mine last week, no, misplaced.
Question Author
kindle, book or mp3 player all the same occupies me for a short time then I get bored.....
Can just about tolerate a flight to Menorca, 2 1/2 hours long which is about my limit - maybe I should consider travelling by sea
"I joined the Navy to see the world. What did I see? I saw the sea."
Travelled back from S.A. by sea. One stop, Madeira. The storm in the Bay of Biscay was the most exciting part of the voyage.
Question Author
Queenie's ex -the sailor used to talk about the Bay of Biscay and how rough it could be.
No Tony on Mamya's thread.
Question Author
don't think he's posted since around 11.00, I hope nothing has happened
Madame, when you are ready the staff have assembled for the clear up.
Question Author
Thank you Igor, I'll be with you shortly
Right Igor, say goodnight to Madame for me. Ask Eric to join me in the courtyard. Lekker slaap.
Of course I shall Madame Daisy, I believe Eric is already out there, Madame will be along in a moment to say good night herself
Question Author
You're ready to go then Daisy? I shall look forward to the next instalment of the Paris trip. No doubt we'll hear from Tony at some point soon.
Good night and safe journey
Fais de beaux reves.
Question Author
if I ever get to bed this night
