As usual, there will be a grand Christmas Ball , and the invitations have already been sent out to you all, on very expensive hand crafted cards with scalloped 22carat gold edging.To be held a few days before Christmas and the venue is Lemongrove Manor (in England, somewhere in the back of beyond).To those of you who have never attended before,
Say what you will be bringing and a line or two of chat ( or a much as you want to) although it’s alphabetical in nature (although we usually get very mixed up) this thread is a cross between a game and general chat.Dress beautifully please?

Crinoline and corsets, making me breathlessly alluring.

???? This conjured up an image of your lady's maid tugging on the laces to cinch in the corset LauraNorder! Brightened an otherwise gloomy day!

Xtremely amusing riposte Lucca

In that case we'd better have some Durex- frenchletters, johnnies, whatever you want to call them. I know it's too late for babies but apparently STDs are flourishing! Any particular sort?

Well I wonder at your woeful wanton words!

LauraNorder Wed 25-Nov-20 11:03:42

Vaginal lubricant. You never know your luck. Hope I haven’t lowered the tone and upset any vestal virgins.

Lucca Wed 25-Nov-20 11:01:53

Unctuous urban underwear to upstage uther people.

LauraNorder Wed 25-Nov-20 11:00:38

Undergarments, boned of course. And perhaps Santa underpants for Orlin

Lucca Wed 25-Nov-20 11:00:16

Scintillating chat, shiny shoes and a sliver of silk as a face mask

LauraNorder Wed 25-Nov-20 10:58:41

Truffles and a pig to find more in the wonderful forest of grand old oaks on the Lemongrove estate

LauraNorder Wed 25-Nov-20 10:57:27

Snooze you loose, oops

LauraNorder Wed 25-Nov-20 10:56:59

Ruby red slippers to adorn my dainty feet and red rum, no not the bloody horse

lemongrove Wed 25-Nov-20 10:56:33

Snow.....how super, we can ski later

lemongrove Wed 25-Nov-20 10:55:39

Roger the lodger....he adores these Christmas Balls,and is a raffishly attired rogue ( so look out)

lemongrove Wed 25-Nov-20 10:52:38

Gill you are really taking the P now?

lemongrove Wed 25-Nov-20 10:51:27

(Shhhhh Lucca we are in polite company, bad enough if me to mention arse!)?

LauraNorder Wed 25-Nov-20 10:50:52

Quintessential English gentleman on my arm, or Orlin

LauraNorder Wed 25-Nov-20 10:49:59

Queen of tarts has kindly invited us so will hopefully behave for the first few minutes

GillT57 Wed 25-Nov-20 10:49:19

Darn, Lucca beat me to it! Wanders off scratching head trying to think of something other than Quince jelly.......

LauraNorder Wed 25-Nov-20 10:48:18

Pants or knickers, we’re not in the Argy now. As for tit or tip. Lemongrove Manor is probably a tip below stairs

GillT57 Wed 25-Nov-20 10:48:16

Plenty of Prosecco will be my contribution, maybe peanuts and a passion fruit pavlova too. I shall also be wearing my big girl pants which I shall hoik up when affronted. Is that enough 'P', lemongrove?

Lucca Wed 25-Nov-20 10:48:14

Purple and pink panties. (God I hate that word). Plenty of Pinot . Pieces of pulled pork in a parcel of prosciutto.

Lucca Wed 25-Nov-20 10:45:35

lemongrove

Many, many stairs at Lemongrove Manor, I shall be making a spectacular entrance ( although, I hope, not as I did last year when I tripped and fell down them, arse over tip.?

I always thought it was arse over tit not tip ??

Ellianne Wed 25-Nov-20 10:45:26

I'll wear a onesie.

Ellianne Wed 25-Nov-20 10:44:02

Nuts and nibbles with nutmeg, and my nails done with those sparkly pictures.

LauraNorder Wed 25-Nov-20 10:43:31

Orlin Norder, can’t go anywhere without him these days
