I'm Back.....

I'm Back - from outer space?  NO just from being inundated with summer goings on.  The school holidays have 2 weeks left, the Bank Holiday is nearly here and the sun is shining. Life is good at The Hilary.

I know many of our regulars come to visit once the school holidays are over so September and October are busy months.  We have some vacancies from 4th September onwards. Although some weeks are busier than others. So fingers crossed we can fit everyone in.

Business is good and we're at that time of the year when we're drawing up the list of big jobs for the winter - or should I say when i am drawing up Colin's list of big jobs for the winter.  We're looking at new bathrooms as well as decorating rooms this year.  So he's going to be busy!

The Llandudno- Daffodil of Wales initiative is well underway and we're on target for our first 50 000 bulbs to be planted this autumn.  Conwy Council are so impressed with us that they're hoping to arrange a special autumn daffodil fun day at Happy Valley.
One of the things we'll be doing is opening a Field of Hopes in conjunction with Marie Curie Cancer Care.  This is a piece of allotted gardens where anyone may come and plant spring flowering bulbs in memory of a loved one.  The Council will continue to mow the area which is why the bulbs are to be spring flowering ones and so each year the bulbs will flower again.  We're so proud to have been allocated this land for our Field of Hopes.    

The Olympic F|lame visited the daffometer and
Squad gymnasts gave a  demonstration

Well, that's the door bell and hopefully is our last check in of the day arriving.
Bye for now  and take care.
