In the church quiz we just buy the tickets and make up a team on the night. Some come as complete teams but I'm just one of the odds and end team!
I enjoyed it last night.
I used to go line dancing 3 nights a week but couldn't manage it now.
Thanks for asking Lady A . 
It was a brilliant day and I found out too late I`m afraid, Silver Sunday is a new national event in the UK. It is Lottery and Charity funded.
Apparently 400 programmes were printed and they ran out.
There were too many opportunities to sample all and many overlapped, but I did manage Standing Pilates which was wonderful. Unfortunately the regular classes begin with Standing Pilates and then progress to the floor.
I also joined a social singing group called Blend. I have always shied away from singing in public because of my foghorn of a voice but was persuaded no one would run for the hills and thoroughly enjoyed it. We sang songs from Dusty Springfield , Neil Diamond, Elvis and the Beatles, among others and it was fun.
There is a regular class on Thursday mornings which I`m thinking of joining as long as I can get to Tai Chi by 1pm.
There were tasters for Tai Chi, Reflexology, Floristry, Crochet, Art, Ukulele, different dance genres and lots more.
A lovely Lunch was provided and we were lucky the weather was so fine, many ate outdoors in the really lovely venue.

It all sounds wonderful, what a great programme, wish we had something like that in my neck of the woods. Or had had when I could go out. The singing group sounds wonderful, all the old favourites! Hope it fits in with your Tai Chi class. A pity about the standing Pilates classes progressing to the floor.
Nice to have a lovely lunch afterwards, and that the weather was good enough to eat outside. After a lovely week today here was dull, bit chilly, and poor weather forecast.
Are you still doing the FutureLearn Mindfulness course? Or do you prefer the group you attend weekly?
Loo xx

Wow, that all sounds great!
Thanks all.
I`m bringing an amazing 90 year old to me today for lunch. Her husband was a Japanese prisoner of war and helped build the Bridge on the River Kwai. She has the most wonderful stories to tell but most of all she reminds me of my grandmother.
I`m picking her up to bring her here because she bought the wrong heated hairbrush and she has asked for help to exchange it.
I kid you not.

Hope she has more stories to tell Sylvia. This lady does sound very special.
Enjoy your time with her.

Well, this lady's well ahead of me in the game!
Just what is a heated hairbrush?
Is it a dryer?
Have a lovely lunch Sylvia. I'm sure it will be an interesting one. x
I keep meaning to get one! They are a fantastic styling aid, not as fiddly to use as curling tongs, and not as much work as heated rollers! They just give you a nice style boost- volume and tweak your style into place. Used on dry hair, between shampoos.
Are they like the round brush hairdryers?
I have one of these.
If not, what is the difference?
