Mad Over Fifties Club

[nungate]

Good evening and welcome to tonight's meeting of AB's Mad Over Fifties Club. Sadly, Queenofmean sends her regrets as she will be unable to join us this evening, due to serious computer problems.
Tonight's Tailcock will be the "Barca Blaster" (we're playing a BIG game tonight and we need the extra support) For our hot plate special we have resurrected that old favourite "Potage Bonne Femme" (you have no idea how difficult it is to locate a Good Woman these days!) served with lots of fresh crusty bread (and butter if desired) of course, as always there is a variety of canopies, volly vonts, and horses doovers, on tonight's banquet table. On the pudding trolley we have Lemon meringue pie, with whipped cream, also on offer is a delicious fruit salad.
The Minstrels are already up in the gallery warming up to give us their usual rendition of madrigals and fugues, while down in the Ballroom we have the Ecclefecchan Girl Pipers playing a selection of show tunes .. interesting
The fires are burning brightly in the hearths, the games room is ready for use, in the Library there is a fabulous selection of books and all the latest Magazines and Periodicals, including a copy of "Plumbing and Crochet Weekly". Up on the North Tower the hot tub is bubbling away and the mini bar had been refilled. The bungees is ready to use, just bear in mind to aim away from the moat as the piranhas do bite! It is possible for a stroll around the grounds as we have installed some outside lighting, just be careful to stay on the lighted paths. The indoor swimming pool is available for member's use (cossies can be borrowed).

For tonight's rofl I offer:
Queenie's laptop (broken....)
my brother (lazy oik and has totally p**sed me off)
Athletico Madrid (they are totally P***ing me off tonight)
Saturday Night TV - thank goodness for Spanish Football and MOFC!

not sure who has rattled my cage tonight but consider it rattled!

however,
A warm welcome awaits all who dare enter these portals tonight

Final Score 0-0 I'll take the point!

[Bommer_50]

Should this thread really be in Chatterbank rather than Quizzes and Puzzles ?

[DaisyNonna]

Infiltration!

[nungate]

When the Mad Over Fifties Club first started it was begun in Quizzes and Puzzles.
The Editors have allowed it to continue and so you will find us every Saturday night from 8.00 p.m. here in Q&P
I am, to the best of my knowledge the second hostess of this Illustrious AB institution - I have very big shoes to fill

[tonyav]

Right then, Queenie, bet they drag their feet.

[DaisyNonna]

Tony, did I miss your birthday? If so, my apologies. Capricorn? Explains stuff.

[nungate]

it's the goats isn't it Daisy?

[tonyav]

It was on Tuesday, Daisy.

Capricorn? Explains stuff.

LOL, how so, Daisy ?.

[tonyav]

See, nungate, knows !.

[nungate]

taps side of nose and slinks off

[Bommer_50]

thanks for explaining why it is in Quizzes and Puzzles still seems odd to me not have moved it to Chatterbank.

[nungate]

Tradition Bommer, simply tradition,

Care for a tailcock?

[DaisyNonna]

St Raymond of Pennafort is your natal saint. He sailed on his cloak from Majorca tt Barcelona!
Think that deserves another bucket.
Belated Felicitations.

[tonyav]

I wouldn't mind another tailcock, nungate, please, also the Lemon meringue pie looks very tempting.
Just read the plumbing and crochet weekly, a tad disappointed that there wasn't an article on adjusting a ballcock this week.

[Igor61]

Methinks you are most correct Madam Daisy.

I have another bucket for you

[DaisyNonna]

Does yours need adjusting?

[queenofmean]

The chap I spoke to was most helpful and said it would be straight in the post. Unlike the snooty know it all from the day before

[nungate]

Perhaps not Tony but did you see the Crochet patter for the ballcock cover?
