A cosy autumn day at The Laurels! 🍂☕️ This morning was all about a little pampering fresh hair by our hairdresser, Freshly painted nails, and plenty of smiles all round. 💇‍♀️💅
We then brought out our competive side along with lots of laughter as we gathered for some friendly table football a mix of fun, joy, and togetherness on a chilly autumn day. ❤️⚽️

For your tomorrow, we gave our today.”

This morning, we attended the Draycott Royal British Legion Remembrance Sunday Church Service . A moving tribute to honour and remember all those who gave their lives for our freedom. 🌺🇬🇧 Lest we forget 🇬🇧
