Quiz day for me Norm. Only down the lounge and run by another resident.

There's also a craft club but after seeing some of the fantastic stuff made by youtubers it's a bit schoolish.

Other things go on as well but I love meeting the other people who live here, so many fascinating back stories.

That why I loved working as Home care,heard some rally great storys ,the people would say the familys didnt want to know,Even when the spoke about there late husbands, One lady told me of the monkey her husband brought home,(he was in the merchant navy,he sold it in the pub so he could buy drinks came home and cried for a week,PS We had a monkey when we lived on sefton road,Jacko Mum gave him to a council worker,when we had him he lived in a brick built building the man who took him had him i wooden shed,poor Jacko died of the cold,

Poor Jacko indeed Norma.

Do you remember when they uded to sell monkeys down the side of the old St Johns?

Re: fun things to do

Not monkeys but did buy white mice,my son saw a white Rat on a tv show,bought him one for his birthday plus a large cage,come home from work to find Ben (the rat) sitting on top of the cage,they were good enough to change the cage for a better one,
PS the only thing i wouldnt have is a snake,
