LIFELINE GROUP

            Now that the dark days of autumn  have arrived we decided to have a last trip out on 27th October.

            A coach was booked and we set off at 12.30pm towards Scarborough. We turned off up through the forest and Forge Valley admiring the lovely views and amazing colours of the trees.

            Going down into Scarborough everyone enjoyed the view of the beach and had a good look at the boats in the harbour, before driving to the Irton Garden Centre. A set tea had been arranged for our group. The food was delicious and everyone loved the apple pie and cream or ice cream, afterwards – but not everyone could find room for the little fancy cakes as we were all full up! 

            The garden centre shop had lots of Christmas items on display and looked so pretty. One little girl seemed entranced by a dancing bear and was holding its paw and joining in with the music – The bear was almost as tall as the her!

            It was nearly dark when we returned to Pickering, but everyone had enjoyed a lovely day out!

            We were pleased to welcome two new members to our friendly group, so if anyone else would like to play dominoes with us on a Tuesday afternoon – just get in touch!

            Now December is fast approaching so “Lifeline” is wishing you all a Merry Christmas.

 Mrs. D. Packwood, Secretary.
