Festivities

came to the rescue and consigned Mr. Wolf to the kitchen to be made into chop suey!

Thanks Ces, Lynn and Olive for starring in this version of Red Riding Hood.

Lynn Walters entertained everyone with her singing while we enjoyed the food that Carol and the Kitchen Team produced.

The dining room was given a new look for the day and after the residents had enjoyed their meal; a surprise visit by Santa during which he gave presents to everyone was enjoyed by the residents. The staff on duty sat down together for a Christmas meal as well.

On Christmas day, we had only 19 residents for lunch as everyone else had gone out for the day. Staff sat with the residents and we all enjoyed a relaxed Christmas Dinner. We all love the food that comes out of that kitchen, especially the individual Christmas puddings with loads of real rum custard.

During the month, Frances had arranged for a variety of people to come and entertain us; ranging from a youth group to Fiona a singer from the USA who was accompanied on the flute by Rebekah. Each and every one provided a different spark to the lives of our residents and we are always grateful for the talents they share with us.
