6 lovely ladies had a great natter over lunch at the Barn Owl today. We were only a small group but in some ways it's better because everyone is able to join in the conversation.

03/06/2026

Our monthly meeting was Robert Booth talking about "The Sweet Life in Bournville". This extremely informative talk covered the history of Bournville with amazing then & now photographs, showing how things have changed in the last, almost 150 years. The ladies were absolutely enthralled 😁 by Robert's talk & we all learned things we didn't know previously. He spoke about the workforce reducing from up to 15,000 in the fifties to 1,300 in the last few years. Yet, they are able to produce more chocolate 🍫products with fewer employees.
He spoke about the history of the Cadbury brothers - George & Richard & the Bournville Village Trust.
All in all, another great evening & another wonderful speaker.

A small group of our members walked, on such a hot day πŸ₯΅, through the woods at the Countryside Centre. They then joined up with a few non-walking members in St Richard’s Hospice Cafe for refreshments. Sounds like the cake πŸŽ‚πŸ° comes highly recommended too πŸ˜‚

I can honestly say that the new Thursday night games session is an absolute success πŸ˜πŸ’žπŸ₯³!!! We had the most amazing time with a newbie joining us too!!! Sort of an initiation ceremony πŸ˜‚!!!
As it was so nice, weather-wise, today, we got out in the garden with Giant Jenga & a silly hoopla game ☺️. Riitta knocked them down (Jenga) but we did good nevertheless πŸ˜†.
Back indoors & played The Frogs Tiddlywinks which Mary won. She likes to stroke their bottom πŸ‘.
Then on to Pick Up Sticks which Louise & Elaine won. Finally, several rounds of Skyjo, congratulations πŸŽ‰ πŸ† Elaine for winning πŸ’–!!!
P.S. Sue had a drink every time a three appeared, or 2+1, 5-2, etc!!!
Elaine just kept drinking πŸ’¦!!!
All in all a really successful evening, thank you ladies for making it so much fun πŸ’“πŸ’“πŸ’“!!!
