thanks to those of you who replied with ideas on how I could fill my time, a 
couple of you suggested craft but sadly don't have that as an interest, we have 
a craft group within our club, they do cards, knitting and sewing, make models 
and paint and decorate them, also do jewellrey making and anything else that 
they can make or have a go at, they have just done a range of christmas boxes 
and decorations, other things we do include line dancing, swimming and exercise 
classes, woodworking and a group that goes walking, the group is run by the 
members who want to try things, both new skills and want to re learn how to do 
old skills in a safe way with sight loss, we have done a couple of courses for 
the gardeners  and also some microwave cookery classes, we also have first aid, 
home hygeine and communication skills training schemes, in fact we ask the 
members for ideas and then try to fundraise for any costs involved which is why 
we are always doing fundraising and street collections to help pay for all of 
the days out and activities that we want to do, hard work but well worth it  as 
you only get out what you put in as they say ha ha, keep you posted on our next 
lot of days out , Vanessa, Steve and Scott x x`
