Our “Out” meeting at Dove Close was scheduled as an Indian Cookery Demonstration, but – once again! – we had to re-think on our feet as the speaker was ill on the night!

Seven residents joined us, including one gentleman, and Shirley and Mary organised the games. We had two games of Bingo and two quizzes, one about food and one about geography followed by refreshments. We stayed chatting for quite a while afterwards, and the residents seemed very pleased to have us there saying they hope we will go again. It was a very convivial evening and a lovely warm place to go on a chilly night. Sofas and arm chairs for some of us so it was almost like being in someone’s sitting room! We all agreed we must try to repeat the visit as they made us very welcome.
