Making Bird Boxes

Chat Club got the tools out to assemble some bird box kits that Donna had found. It might be a bit late for this year but we'll be ahead of the game next spring.

Fish 'n Chips on Good Friday

Norman had told Maria that the only thing he misses is fish and chips from a chip shop and since Gaynor's husband Peter runs a fish shop we thought it would be a nice change to have 'proper' fish and chips. 

No photos of that but Poppy fancied a drop of Gaynor's coffee afterwards!


Easter Flower Arranging with Rita

Rita came to show us how to do Easter flower arrangements. You start of with a willow stem or two and build up around it. The chaps didn't mind showing their creative side too.

Spring Cleaning

We have a large collection of bits and pieces that Donna has found over the years and the household cleaning department is well stocked. Young people today have no idea how much work was involved in everyday things like washing clothes. The bar of Lifebouy soap may be pretty old but it is still quite pungent and goodness know how strong it was when it was new.
