Mum and I joined forces in a word game at the Home this morning. We had to make as many words as possible out of one long word chosen by a 96 year old lady. This lady had been in the ATS (auxiliary territorial service) in Egypt during World War Two. That is where she met her husband to be and she later moved to England for her married life.

The game turned into a group effort and, between us all, we chalked up 60 words on the board. It was good fun. Well done to the lovely volunteer (a retired car dealer) who turns up every Tuesday to run quizzes and discussion groups with the residents.
