Bristol 3’s girly afternoon and garden visit

In May 2024 Bristol 3 had a demonstration and talk by an Elizabeth Arden lady from Boots at Cribbs Causeway.  The Elizabeth Arden lady talked to us about skin products and then demonstrated them by using some of the products on a member.

She showed many samples to help with skin care and talked about their applications. The whole Branch enjoyed the talk and their "model" looked lovely afterwards.  The "model" was pleased with the results , especially as the other members were so very complementary! Tea and cake followed with a great time together.  A really girly afternoon!

A  group from Bristol 3 visited Ilford Gardens in Somerset on a glorious day in June 2024. The sun shone for a change giving a most interesting but also relaxing day together.

Starting with cups of coffee or other drinks in the cafe outside and then spending about 1.5 hours exploring the gardens.  Set on different levels and featuring beautiful plants, shrubs, trees and stone sculptures. Many roses had been trained to climb stone pillars and there were cascades of colourful flowers over the walls. There were ponds to see with fishes too! The group had a lovely time using Google to ascertain what the names of some of the trees and plants were! There was as usual much chat and an enjoyable lunch in the same outdoor cafe as before with the sun still shining!
