Free films once a week

Tweet

I thought I’d write about the film nights we have each week in our retirement village. We have a social committee which does a great job in providing entertainment for us. There is usually a major event each month but every Tuesday there is a free film put on in the clubhouse for us to enjoy. We meet at 6.30pm for a chat and most of us have drinks with us. The movie starts at 7pm and it’s all over by about 9pm. Ourselves and two other couples take it in turn to go to each other’s houses. We finish off our bottle of wine, have a few nibbles and a lot more chat and laughter, and usually end with a glass of Bailey’s Irish Cream. It would be nice to share the ‘afters’ with others but our lounges are only large enough for about six people. The photo is mine and shows the clubhouse set up for a Christmas function. At the top left of the room is another smaller room with a biggish screen and room for perhaps 40 people.
