Old Time Music Hall at Llwynon

Our good friends, Billy and Jen recently led an "Old Time Music Hall Singalong" at the Llwynon Sheltered Housing Complex in Crynant in the valley in which we live.  It was a truly blessed afternoon with the elderly joining in with all the war songs over a nice cup of tea and a buffet kindly laid on by the staff.  We took along our RR stand and I spoke briefly about the history of the Charity and the Projects it supports.  Before we left we were given clothing items for Romania and money boxes of coins.  

Jen and Billy (who is Irish) ended the afternoon  with some Irish songs and distribution of Shamrock Shortbread to celebrate St. Patrick's Day.  This was followed by a beautiful rendering of "Amazing Grace".

A big thank you to wardens, Pam and Linda, the residents and Billy and Jen for their support.  A total of 75 pounds was raised and they are planning to support our Christmas Shoebox Appeal.
