Yesterday was Bingo Bonanza in the bar with lots of prizes to be won. It became very serious when we got down to the final few numbers!

Today was all about Armistice Day. We reminisced and this linked through into our poetry group. The lovely Jean read her favourite poem out loud for everyone to enjoy and we held a 2 minute silence across the home.

We have some talented artists at The Porterbrook and adult colouring is often a requested activity. Today they worked on a fireworks display while a history documentary on Guy Fawkes was played in the cinema. This led to discussions and reminiscing of bonfire nights in years gone by.

Hopefully we will be able to enjoy watching community fireworks from the balcony while keeping warm with hot chocolates and parkin.

Yesterday 3 of our ladies enjoyed the Crosspool Crawlers visit to the "Three Merry Lads". A lovely country pub that made us feel very welcome. We saw the start of the bonfire being prepared for Bonfire night and enjoyed a little tipple to warm us up on a cold Autumnal day.

It's well.known that music can bring back memories and stir up emotions. This afternoon we welcomed a 15year old pianist into the home. Residents, staff and visitors gathered in the bar to listen to his phenomenal music. Everyone was mesmerized, some even had tears as they sat and listened. We are looking forward to him visiting again at Christmas 😊

Today our manager took the Crosspool Cruisers for a lovely scenic drive to Hathersage. Our drive back turned into the Managers Adventure as we took the "scenic" route back!!

When we arrived home we stopped to admire our new bench at the top of the drive where we plan to sit, relax and watch the world go by.
