What a surprise I had at our Strictly Fitsteps class on Friday 21st June! I just want to say a massive thank you to everyone who has donated to my birthday gifts. It was very kind of you all and I was very touched.

I will be using my Shrigley Hall voucher for a Spa treatment on my little break there and will use the Boots voucher for my favourite Clinique products.

It’s my birthday on Sunday 23rd June and our daughter Erin is coming home from London for the weekend so I plan to have a lovely time celebrating with family and friends.

Once again a big thank you.

Well done to everyone who attended our special Wartime themed Strictly Fitsteps class on Friday 7th June at Civic Hall, Cottingham. Remembering the Normandy landings of 1944 we danced to those iconic songs of that era.

Lots of you dressed up in wartime theme outfits to mark the occasion and looked fabulous! Well done to everyone for managing all that wartime choreography – you did great!

Hope you all enjoyed the session.

On Friday 26th April we had our annual Fitness Gold day trip. This time we went to Sewerby Hall and gardens. Once again we all had a great day out.

Thanks to Les Holland coaches for their excellent service and I hope they enjoyed our sing a long with our song sheets!

When arriving at the hall we all had some time to explore and then had our private group lunch in the gorgeous orangery. A resident historical speaker gave a talk which was really interesting.

After lunch some of us picked up the little land train to go along the coast whilst others did more exploring around the grounds.

Once again we had a thoroughly enjoable day out together and the weather was amazing!
