Good evening and welcome to Nungate Towers.
Igor is waiting by the main entrance to assist members with their coats cloaks and broomsticks, though in this pleasant warm weather he may only have to conceal broomsticks this evening.
In view of the pleasantness of the evening, I think we should all adjourn to the beach and hold our meeting there. Plant has set up the barbecue and
the coals are glowing beautifully ready for the goodies we have ready to toss on the grill. There are steaks, burgers, chicken, hot dogs you name it we probably will have it ready to barbecue, there is also a wide variety of salads and other side dishes, not forgetting the famous volly vonts, canopies and horses doovers. We have also requested the presence of Toni the Ice Man and his ice cream truck - 99's all round tonight!
Later the Tone Deafs will be playing, and they have set up a makeshift stage on the beach and will be playing a variety of summer time hits from days gone by............. the Minstrels can set up in the gallery with their usual madrigals and tocattas but they will only be playing to the portraits on the walls as we shall all be down by the sea, paddling! (one of these days I'll find out how they are getting in!) For those members not wishing to indulge themselves by the sea, the gardens are looking particularly pretty and we have set up a marquee in the grounds serving suppers and there will also be a mobile disco arriving later for dancing!
There are plenty of other outdoor diversions for our members, the race track is just waiting for racers to grab a cars for a few circuits of the track,
the maze is open too (keep turning left) We have just opened up the pink grotto to visitors, George the Dragon having gone on his holidays means members are permitted a peek at his far from humble home (just do not touch his treasure otherwise he will be back in a heartbeat, and I prefer guests ungrilled!)
As part of our usual fare the library is open to members as is the gym, indoor pool and other various diversions. It is a bit too warm in the conservatory but the Triffid is thriving, and the spider monkey is enjoying the extra heat.
I hope Queenie will be along later to tell us of the bit of excitement we had earlier on this week - which I found quite funny - she didn't!
For the rofl tonight I offer:
Half a dozen cardboard boxes (empty)
1 metre black fabric with gold stars (project didn't work!)
another bag of odd socks......

A warm welcome awaits all who dare enter these portals

Tony I suspect it'll be Mr. N having the sweats! (I refer you back to Queenies post of yesterday!)

Igor, understandable, I keep losing my pages and have to go and find them again - we may need to get a man out to look at our machines
Ooh nun! No female experts in Scotland?
nun, daisy im sorry neither of you are feeling tip top tonight. maybe some sunshine will help us all.

I have a nice "go to" guy for the computer problems, though he does live across the border in Berwick. I hope I never have to use a passport to go see him!
Are you expecting some then, anne ?.

Yes I did see that post last night, nungate have to say, he ain't the only one !.
Question Author
My trouble is down to lack of sleep Tony. Mr N. didn't get back from work until just after 3.00 in the morning and by the time we'd got everyone settled, cats fed again, us and allow him a time to "wind" down a bit it was after 4.00 when we went to bed, practically daylight and the dawn chorus had begun, he may be earlier tonight, I expect him around 1.30! I have Queenie and her young man for company, and of course you lovely lot!
Have great memories of Berwick. Visited when I was sylph like. Bought some marvellous tweed at the market. Out grew it before I outwore it.
ps. You can always borrow a broom. Will look out for one for you.
Question Author
Yes Tony, but what were your first words when you heard you had a daughter? I bet they weren't Oh Lord I'll have to pay for a wedding! Everyone in the delivery suite was in stitches! (literally for me!)
I have Queenie and her young man for company, and of course you lovely lot!

Has she said that you can adopt him though, nungate.

Hope Mr N is earlier for you tonight.

Takes us less than an hour to get down to Berwick these days, it's a lovely place. Changed a lot over the years, but it's the same everywhere, I think we've lost something as the years have passed
LOL, no nungate I didn't actually say that I may have thought it though !.
Berwick is just about in England isn't it ?.
Wasn't weight though was it nun? despondently
Question Author
It all depended Tony, sometime it was Scottish, other times it was English, it meant to be in England these days but I think they may have an identity crisis down there, as some of the people want to be part of Scotland. Maybe they should be an independent enclave, a bit like the Vatican city is part of Rome, though still a separate state
we must blow away all this despondency! Buckets all round!!
Good idea, nungate, they could be self ruling.
That figures nun. Men in skirts!
Does Mr, Nun have a kilt. My cousin did and looked magnificent in it.

Don't mind if I do, thanks Igor.
Question Author
Yes Igor, buckets all round!
Question Author
He doesn't have the knees for a kilt Daisy. Though I have photos of him as a wee laddie in a kilt, with a Tom O'Shanter and a wee tartan tie! Cute as a little red wagon (and him with red hair too!)
