A busy Monday 😀
Some residents enjoyed going out on the Minibus 🚐 to a new initiative “lets get together” that has been organised by Epping forest where residents enjoyed a chit chat while sipping tea 🫖 and eating biscuits whilst playing games or getting creative 🎨🖌️
While others enjoyed sitting round the table enjoying a puzzle 🧩 or two. This afternoon as it has been icy 🥶 ❄️ cold we decided to look after our feathered 🦅 🦜🪶friends and make bird food with lots of nuts 🥜 and raisins for them to enjoy 😊
