216 Answers
Good evening and welcome to Nungate Towers and the Mad Over Fifties Club.
Igor is at the main entrance waiting to collect your coats, cloaks and broomsticks for concealment in a variety of crooks and nannies around the Towers, known only to him members should note that al personal belongings are left at their own risk, we cannot guarantee their safe return at the end of the evening, though members might wish to check the lost property office for anything that has gone astray recently
Tonight's Tailcock will be the "Daffy Dilly", nothing better for a "jaundiced" look at life!
Our hot plate special tonight comes in the form of a Chinese Banquet, all your favourite take out Chinese dishes are available for members to make their selections, so get your chopsticks ready...... keeping to our Chinese theme, on the pudding trolley we have apple and banana fritters, and ice cream. It would not be a true MOFC evening without the world famous volly vonts, canopies and horses doovers for tempt you...
As usual, the Minstrels are up in the Gallery in the Great Hall, preparing their customary selection of madrigals and toccattas for our delight and entertainment....................yeh right! For those members wishing to trip the light fantastic, down in the ballroom we have secured the services of the Bert Campfire big band complete with two of the Dagenham Lady Pipers, to ensure our evening goes with a swing!
The bungee is well secured on the topmost Tower ready for the most daring of members, and at the top of the North Tower you will find the hot tub and mini bar, on a clear day you can see forever! Again, the maze and gardens are open for members wishing an evening stroll, (the head gardener is particularly proud of his spring bulbs this year) the race track is at the ready and the cars all fuelled up and ready to go!
Within the confines of the Towers, our well stocked library is open for those members who prefer a quiet time, the indoor pool down in the dungeon is still missing his friend the hot tub and would welcome any member wishing a swim (we do have a selection of swim wear for members to use). Members should also note that if they enter the conservatory they are requested not to feed the triffid, as feeding it out of season can be annoying.
Since I forgot to make the draw for last weeks rofl the prizes have been held over until tonight, tickets can be had from Belle in the vestibule.
A warm welcome awaits all who dare enter these portals
carriages at midnight

Life is getting quite complicated. SIL is picking me up about 5 to go to Portsmouth where GS is taking part in a Street Dance competition, thence to Bournemouth. Monday will be spent pa(nic)king and fly to Paris on Tuesday. GD's 16th birthday Thursday then back to B'mouth. Not sure if I will make it to you, my friends next week.

River trip, excellent Daisy, when you get to the far end of the Ile de La Cite behind Notre Dame, you'll notice two square(ish) openings in the wall that's where they have the memorial to those souls shipped to the concentration camps during the last unpleasantness with the Germans. Make sure you have comfy shoes too!
tony, that's very nice of you to offer thanks. might you put some trousers on first though ( people may gossip ), daisy I do hope you have a lovely time..... i'll do the ward round now,,,,,,,,,,,,nungate are you better ? queenie, is your toe any better ? igor did you ever get wd40 for your rusty chains ?.........hubba bubba 6 under par :)
You mustn't miss the Sacre Coeur Daisy, it's a must, though it's a wee bit of a climb from Abbesses Metro but worth it for the views over the city and the church itself is lovely, and as DT says Musee d'Orsay for the impressionists! There's a café at the top behind the clock, and a roof terrace - hope the weather stays fine for you all
