We were chartered on April 1, 2002 (April Fool's Day,
appropriately so) and we held our first tea on April 16.
Not having had time to shop for hats as yet, our founders
made red tennis visors for all, to remind us that we first
became friends on the tennis courts. In the front row
our Queen-Mum holds her scepter, the Sergeant-in-gloves
holds her lace gloves and the Vice-Mum (in charge of vice)
holds her red lace panties. You can tell that the rest
of the ladies are ready for whatever "vice" we can dream
up. Now we will meet the first Monday of each month for
luncheon, wearing our "full regalia" (purple
with red hats ,or lavender with pink hats in the case
of the ladies-in-waiting who are "almost" 50) and try
a few other adventures as the mood strikes us. |
