May I bid you all good evening, in her Ladyships absence I have been asked to throw open the doors and bid you welcome.
Following last weeks excellent suggestion that we may raise some funds by having a small select campsite in the grounds whilst the 'Family@ were away, some very posh tents were procured or purloined and various facilities installed. After a local ad campaign we had a few takers, but and here is the rub, the local Bewildered neighbours though it a wheeze to disrupt proceedings. Damage to the lawns and a deep clean to the moat had to be done so all that was left was enough to clear the ever mounting tab at the chippy,
So maybe a fish supper later, still it was worth a try.
For the raffle I have knitted a camel hair scarf, courtesy of Humph, very soft.
Wow is that a compliment Alex, have not got the edumacation like her ladyship, hence the lack of intelligent banter on my rota, still I do a mean tailcock.
I pointed out to ttfn the other night that if you have a drink in the Isle of Man (now where is our member from the Manx Land?) - it would be a no-tail-cock.
marjorie is my companion, but there is only one of her, I think, I've heard of a double martini and a double G & T but no double marjorie, oh, methinks... there was that time I over imbibed the chateau neuf du pape, both of them helped put me to bed.
