CLEEVE HILL CHRONICLE JULY 2008
The weather improved as the month wore on with some very hot summer days towards the end, some showers and thunder storms but no damage.
A day long outing was to Blenheim Palace with the latest trainee’s, other outings were to Pitville Park, Imperial Gardens were we saw the new statue of Gustav Holst.
We had two quizzes in the evening with Barbara and Tony as question masters.
We saw some of the RAF fly past, followed by songs by Brian Wynn, and Tony gave a poetry recital with anecdotes.
We were invaded by three large sheep who had escaped from a farmer’s field, they were put up our drive to keep them away from the traffic, and some staff saw danger to our lovely roses and put chairs around them to save them.
Although the main improvements are finished work still goes on updating some of the older rooms, involving much hammering.
Alice Mold received her medal for the Land Army, recognition at last.
Our main activity of the month was THE FETE, The weather was warm and sunny with a nice breeze, better than last year when we were flooded in, and we were entertained by the Ragged and Old Morris Dancers. The cooks excelled themselves with cakes and buns for tea.
Marta (activities lady) won a bottle of whisky, Mrs. Margaret Davis (wife of a resident) won the guess the weight of the cake made by our chef. Margaret donated it back to the nursing home for the residents to enjoy.
Four raffle prizes were won by Lizzy Gill Food Hamper plus meat vouchers, Norman Parker won a Basket of Fruit plus garden vouchers, Margaret Davis won a Basket of flowers plus a Radio, Jeffery’s sister won a basket of flowers.
It was a very pleasant afternoon and every one enjoyed themselves. And we all look forward to next year.
