Abbeyfield Lounge
Tea & chat to follow afterwards
A huge thank you to local magician Billy Gibson who performed for the residents on Thursday afternoon in the Abbeyfield lounge. A highly entertaining hour of magic with a subtle touch of comedy to an amazed and rapturous crowd. Billy showed the residents what he could really do with magic – with many of the stunned residents wearing the token ‘how did he do that?’ look on their faces as he pulled trick after trick from his hat. Judging by the reactions and chatter as the residents enjoyed a cup of tea afterwards, it was clear that this was a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon for all. Billy is very much a talented and likeable guy who has left the residents hungry for more and hopefully it won't be too long before we see him perform for us again.
Yesterday we celebrated Mrs Innes's landmark 90th birthday in style with a party in the Abbeyfield lounge featuring a wonderful performance from Colin Bryce, The Tartan Tenor. All the residents had a fantastic day listening to Colin perform various old classics which was then followed by a cup of tea and a huge big chocolate birthday cake.
The birthday girl herself told us; "It was great! I had a smashing birthday. The entertainment was just great, I'd have him back anytime."
Thanks again to Colin for taking the time to come perform for the residents and to our group of volunteers and staff who help make these events run smoothly.
