friday 3rd sept

busy day today; lots of relatives visiting and things going on.  Wifi connection was down so couldn't use the computers and then one of the lifts packed up!

Christiane one of our volunteers came this afternoon to 'do' the bingo which is always popular, followed by a general knowledge quiz.  we also held a residents meeting today after lunch which we do every two months, to guage residents feelings and sort out any problems they may have.  very positive meeting today - quite a few of the residents would like a trip to Sissinghurst gardens so we will have to arrange this soon.

we have a trip booked on a london cruiser http://www.thefloatingboater.co.uk/  in a few weeks time, as well as a trip to a piano recital, etc etc.

don't forget the mount ephraim Quiz night next thursday - if you can get a team together its £5 a head including a ploughman's supper.  book now for a place...

garden is looking brilliant - thanks to Julian and his new helper!  the summerhouse has been refurbished and looks good and its still warm enough for the residents to sit outside during the day, or stroll around the grounds.
