7th August we had a most enjoyable trip to Maidenhead by coach, then
a trip on the River to At
our meeting on 14th August Barbara announced that Elaine Blunt had
unfortunately suffered a stroke and was in hospital.
A card had been sent and good wishes from all members for her speedy
recovery. We
sang our usual ‘Happy Birthday’ to Peter Powell for reaching his 80th.
Barbara also said she had received a ‘thank you’ from Margaret
Chaplain for the £507.00 donation received from our Club to
Myton Hospice in memory of Jack, her late husband.
Margaret hopes to return to Golden Years meetings very soon.
We
were then entertained by a group of singers called ‘Kaleidoscope’ of which
Barbara, our President, is also a member. We
all joined in singing the “oldies” and it made a really lovely afternoon. On
28th August we were given a very interesting talk by members of the
local community Police, which include advice on home security, etc.
Members were also
given various aids for help around the home, such as door and window alarms,
plus a bell to attach to their purses in the event of any would-be thief.
We were also given a telephone number to contact the police if needed.
