Happy New Year everyone !

I hope everyone enjoyed a great Christmas and New Year. 

Here’s to a very peaceful and healthy 2010 !

Goodness me it was like a whirlwind at Valerie Manor in December... Zoe and the Staff’s feet hardly touched the ground !  Everyone works so very hard to ensure a lovely time was enjoyed by our lovely ladies and gentlemen.  I must mention all the volunteers who came along to decorate the Manor and pupils from The Towers School not forgetting the Reverend John Challis.  I know from past personal experience that time is one of the most treasured gifts you can give !

Lots of entertainment was enjoyed in December.  Our dear Brian paid us a visit as did Rita and Peter, SG Productions performed ‘The Magic of Christmas' and not forgetting the lovely children and adults from my Dance School.  The ladies and gentlemen planned their own Christmas/New Year Menus, made Christmas Crackers,  enjoyed Musical Christmas hats and played getting the ‘snowballs’ in the box.

After Christmas I went along intending to do some exercise with everyone but instead of that we had great fun in the lounge taking down decorations,  everyone helped and had a few ‘stockings’ to empty of paper stuffing....so it was a physical event after all....Whilst all this was happening we were singing along to Billy Cotton....go on....own up if you remember him !

Be careful in the snow !
