This was my first visit to see Mrs W in her retirement appartment - she could remember Georgeta's visit last week, but doesn't get many other visitors. She is blind, and her speech is quite difficult to understand as she has had a stroke, but she loves to talk. She has lived in Holyport and Maidenhead all of her life and used to work for the Maidenhead Advertiser. We talked about all things Christmas, and she certainly appreciated the chocolates I brought her, announcing 'Me and Chocolate are Good Friends', so that was a hit! She is keen for more visits
