This afternoon our residents enjoyed a game of bingo. 

Margaret helped to paint and decorate Mardi Gras Masks for the party.

We have been enjoying time spent outside today at Troutbeck. The chess set is set up in the beautiful courtyard ready for the next players to see if they can win. 

England, Scotland and Wales all saw their warmest days of the year on Wednesday 2nd June. 

The UK’s mini-heatwave has smashed records for the year with parts of the country including London experiencing temperatures nearing 30C.

The sun was out in its full splendour and so were the Knights Court residents! Our residents enjoyed engaging in numerous different outdoor activities this week including lawn bowls. 

Our beautiful garden was filled with song and dance as we held an early D-Day celebration along with a special performance from the D-Day Dollies. We had so much fun welcoming back live entertainment to our home!.

Although many public spaces have now started reopening again including museums, we are still unable to visit in large groups, so we decided to celebrate International Museum Day by bringing the museum into Abingdon.

After a fun pub style quiz we enjoyed a crisp and dip tasting session. Everyone had a different favourite with the onion rings proving to be particularly popular. 

One of our residents is lucky to have a talented artist as her husband. Her walls are always filled with beautiful reminders of one another and her face always lights up whenever a new one arrives. 

What a perfect day to celebrate national milkshake day by making our own in the sunshine.
