Monkey World
1 GoodGymer made their way to help an isolated older person in Windsor and Maidenhead.
- Saturday, 14th of October 2023
This afternoon I visited Ms W in her care home and took a couple of the chocolate muffins that I saved for her from my baking for Mrs D's birthday. Ms W loves my baking and has noticed I have not been baking much lately. I explained that now the weather is getting colder I'll be spending more time indoors and possibly in the kitchen too. 😜 Then we started talking about animals, Ms W loves animals. She was telling me about a trip to the Monkey World in Dorset. They were told not to touch the animals, but clearly nobody told the monkeys not to touch the visitors. She said one of the monkeys came close to her and started playing with her hair... perhaps an attempt to grooming her, that's pretty cool. I will definitely add Money World to my places to visit.

For Amy: the comedian that featured in the local newspaper opening a Charity together with Ms W, re last week's report, was Timmy Mallett.
Thanks for the note Georgeta! I should have guessed it would be Timmy Mallett. I love the monkey business in this report too - great memories! x
