Today we held our Travel Club, our first destination was Mexico. We watched a documentary about the country this morning and then this afternoon we listened to a Mariachi band while enjoying Margaritas and nachos.

This afternoon we held a Golf tournament and big congratulations to our winner, Margaret. If was great fun but everyone was very sneaky about how good they are at golf.

This afternoon we all met Ethel and Lottie from Tavistock Therapy Goats. What a great time we had learning all about the goats and getting lots of cuddles.

What a week we’ve had. Music, fun and laughter filled the home. And we’ve finally started getting our balconies looking ready for summer days spent in the sun. Make sure you keep an eye on the changes we are making to make the spaces more enjoyable.

We had a lovely visit from PAT dog Sheeva this afternoon, she’s so relaxed and wonderful with our residents. It’s also nice to see residents that either can’t leave their rooms, or don’t want to, get involved. We are sure they get fed up of the interactions with the staff so always nice for them to see an outside face.

Last week we also enjoyed another visit from Marie at Animals2usouthwest. Everyone loves meeting Marie’s little friends and learning all about them. The staff had run scared but the residents were very brave by holding Prince the royal python.

What a busy week we’ve had and today we got to enjoy the sunshine, thank goodness we can finally get outside. Hasn’t it felt like a long winter?

We had a relaxing day today. A morning spent doing some Yoga with Caroline and an afternoon spent flower arranging and listening to Andre Rieu. It also helped that the sun was shining making everyone feel amazing.
