🍺🎶 Oktoberfest Comes to Kington Court! 🎶🍺
What an incredible time we had celebrating Oktoberfest here at Kington Court! Residents, relatives, and staff all joined in the fun — enjoying music, laughter, and plenty of delicious treats.
🎵 Resident favourite Banjo Brian provided wonderful live entertainment, performing classics like “Run Rabbit Run,” “The White Cliffs of Dover,” “A Lovely Bunch of Coconuts,” “Don’t Dilly Dally on the Way,” and “Show Me the Way to Go Home.” Everyone joined in with bells and tambourines, filling the room with joy and song!
🥨 Guests enjoyed traditional Oktoberfest refreshments — soft pretzels, bratwurst sausages, smoked cheese, and non-alcoholic Heineken beer or root soft drinks — all kindly supplied free of charge by our food supplier, Brakes. Thank you so much for your generosity!
🎉 The atmosphere was fantastic, with Bavarian hats, blue and white bunting, themed table settings, and even a wooden bar and bratwurst servery handcrafted by Darren.
And for the highlight of the day — Brian (Head Housekeeper) and Darren (Maintenance Operative) dressed up as Bavarian barmaids, bringing plenty of smiles and laughter to everyone’s faces! 😄💙
