Grand Forum Operetta

[Old Regulator]

Whilst sharing a reflective Digestive (glass of red wine really)with Matron in Portugal I came over all Gilbert and Sullivan. Thought soon progressed to members of this much reduced forum and I began ‘casting’ for a Grand Rochdale Forum Operetta.

As is the way with these things I take it upon myself to allocate members along the lines of their scribblings on here and have cast:-

The Mikado; making punishment fit the crime.

The Lord High Executioner; He’s got a little list.

Modern Major General; in matters animal, vegetable etc.

Ruler of the Queens Navy’ polishing the handle on the big front door.

3 Little (or not so) Maids from School’ 1 little maid is Yum Yum Etc.

The Pirate King; for all his faults he loves his Queen.

Sweet Little Buttercup; where is Tinkerbelle by the way?


Go on let me have your guesses and more castings.

I've polished up a few knockers in my time OR so put me down as Ruler of the Queen's Navee.

[Admin]

And I've got one or two on my list so I guess I'd better be Ko-Ko, Lord High Executioner.

[Charly]

Modern major General is Cyffi
Me and Jeanie 2 of the little maids
Lord High Executioner = Teamplayer

[Hinch]

And of course, Tinkerbell is on record as offering quayside blandishments to sailors at HMS Middleton's homecoming last year so Buttercup she most truly is.

"I've tea and I've coffee and excellent jerky... Etc"

[Hinch]

Dr Daly, Vicar of Ploverlea appears in The Sorcerer. Who else but Paul Daly. Heywoodpp!

[southernbelle]

I shall join Charly and Jeanie as the 3rd maid, if I may please.
