I live in a retirement village and the membership of the social committee has recently changed. There has been a lot more events happening and today there will be a fashion parade at the clubhouse. It’s not really my scene but I like to support whatever’s happening so I’ll tag along.
The models are residents and we’ve been assured the garments will be suitable for our age group and for the more ‘mature figure’. Vince is coming too to take photographs. He seems to have become the designated village photographer which is nice.
We have a chemist shop now next to our new supermarket and the chemist will be introducing himself. He has also been very generous in gifting some items for a raffle.
We’ll be met with a glass of champagne to get us into party mode.
The photo is of our two sons.

@JudyEv You are so right. When we decided to settle here it was also considering the quality of the hospitals and how far they are from our home. I do not drive, but the Bus gets me there in 10 minutes and the bus stops at 1 minute walk from home.

That's a lovely photo.
It's good that your retirement village organized events for members from time to time.
