The Club is now Open.

Welcome once again to our weekly get-together for fun frolics and felicity.

The weather is being much kinder to us this week, so all members are reminded to wear sunscreen at all times.

The heating is off and it is time for the annual boiler-scrape and polish. Any volunteers are asked to sign up as a lack of volunteers will lead to conscription.

This week's raffle prizes include

a flue brush (handy for the boiler-scrape)
six black plastic rubbish bags (ditto)
a small set of step ladders, hardly wonky at all (ditto again)
half a tin of Zebo (ditto again again)

As the weather is glorious the buffet table is bedecked with a Mediterranean feast of cold cured meats and assorted salads etc., a large punch bowl of a delicious and fruity mixed rum punch. Tonight's Tailcock is the Scorchio - does not get many outings but is a bright and cheery little number.

For the Rofl:

12 coat hangers
power lead for a hedge trimmer
an empty calor gas bottle
monkey wrench.
forgive my ignorance ... what is this?
Good evening m'lady, Matron & guests.

For the rofl I can offer -

1/2 packet C5 envelopes, Sellotape required for sealing
Spider plant that might just make it through the weekend
Kenwood blender - a bit melty & fire-damaged...

I shall begin serving tailcocks & hiding whatever clothing needs to be hidden immediately.

Hello Mamya..A scorchio will go down nicely , thank you.

Excelsior, this is what it says on the tin...a club for mad over fifties, or indeed a club for the mad or the over fifty.

Do come in and have a scorchio
Question Author
Hello LiK

Thank youfor the raffle prizes...did you have a conflagration ? or just a bit of difficult blending ?
ok. i'm 51, and game.

what is a scorchio and, what does one do in here?
Question Author
A scorchio is Mamya's special cocktail, only available here and now.

Wait around for others to come and all will be revealed.
If you would like some raffle tickets, there are some on the small table in the great hall as well as in all the other usual places.
Flagons of Scorchio all round...

M'lady - it was blending, said "BANG!" and caught fire - I immersed it in a sink of water where it continued to smoke happily for several minutes. The jug's ok...
Good evening to you all, a flagon of scorchio would be bliss while I unload these waffle prizes.
I have to donate, a size 12 knitting needle, ( I may well find the other one later ) some jellied eels and a boomerang.
My shawl may need to be hidden from the llama . It takes an unhealthy liking to my outer wear.
Good evening miss flump - your flagon. I am unsure as to the whereabouts of the llama, but will take care with your shawl - perhaps you would like to take advantage of the new chilled cranny?
Question Author
Hello flump, nice to see you .Thanks for the prizes...wouldn't mind the boomerang...but would I be able to keep it ?

LiK that sounds most unfortunate...perhaps less challenging blending in future...
Hello all and welcome back Butler - refreshed and invigorated I hope, and a nice first time welcome to Excelsior ( think we had a Tailcock of that name once).

A shawl Flump do you chill easily or is it a disguise??
Lik I am always so appreciative of a cool cranny , many thanks.
Perhaps in a while I may partake of a boiler scrape for an hour or so .
still puzzled - - sorry folks
Thank you m'lady - should I obtain another machine, I shall endeavour to find something less arduous than bananas & yoghurt for it to work on...
Question Author
Thank you for volunteering, flump..I'm sure you will be joined by many others soon.
We need at least two people forthe step ladders...elf and safety.
Oh mamya I chill having been in the sun today as I crossed the moat tonight I felt the goose wobbles . I am all cozy now !
Question Author
That does seem a little unfair, LiK....bananas a little underripe, perhaps ?
Good evening to all here assembled. I've parked the llama in the stables as usual Milady, I trust this will be acceptable?
I should love one of your Scorchio cocktails Mama, I've brought my usual bucket to accomodate it. I shall pull up a lounger out in the courtyard and quietly bask in the evening sunshine.
In my reticule I have some blue marigolds and a tin of Brasso as an offering for tonight's raffle
What fabulous prizes, my marigolds need renewing.
