Little Treat for the Little Ones at Stepping Stones

Today we were very pleased (as were the children) to pop into Stepping Stones, the pre school at Vernon Primary.

We quickly despatched ice creams and lollies to 20 jolly youngsters and one or two of the staff.

from there it was up to Yew Tree to serve the usual crowd at the High School.

Spring is creeping in slowly

On Sunday we attended a fundraising event for East Cheshire Hospice at the Pinewood Hotel in Handforth and luckily it stayed dry. It was fairly cool, so many of the mums and dads seemed to be having liquid refreshment, but of course, many of the kids enjoyed a whippy.
All told it was a good day and I hope they managed to raise plenty for a good cause.

Today was dry and bright and with the High School off till tomorrow, we visited Lower Park where some of the lucky children enjoyed a treat.

From there we visited as many regular streets as possible, hopefully the bad weather is behind us.

Remember, a whippy a day keeps the doctor away (well it cheers a lot of people up)

Spring arrived briefly

Saturday was a lovely warm spring day and it was excellent to see so many people out and enjoying the sunshine.

By Sunday it had already cooled down and the forecast for the week is not fantastic. However, cheer yourself up with a delicious whippy (even indoors) with the central heating on.

Cheshire schools have another week off, whilst Stockport go back tomorrow.

Stay Calm
Have an Ice Cream
and Carry On

March on with a whippy

Made it to Yew Tree again today with the sunshine even though it was cool. It very quickly went to zero and we departed for whippy factory around ten to six.

In between we managed to visit customers on Barnaby, Gloucester, Hazelbadge and the Bird Estate. Tomorrow we will visit different areas untill it is warm and light enough to try and visit you all.

Sadly, the nasty weather people are forecasting another Arctic blast over the next three weeks brrrr

Lets hope they are wrong (for a change) and anyway, congratulations to the many smiling kids who enjoy a whippy whatever the weather, after all the British thrive in adversity. Keep smiling and remember, a whippy a day keeps the doctor away.

Great start to the season

We finally made it to Yew Tree on Wednesday, it was warm and sunny, the same on Thursday. On Friday it cooled and was cloudy, but we were still busy and it is great to be back.

Today the sun shone and we visited most of Poynton, including Deva, The sports club and most of the usual haunts.

We flew up to Bollington for a quick tour of the regular kids before finishing off on the Bird estate as darkness (and the cold) fell.

Day off tomorrow as have to take No 1 son flying, back to Yew Tree Monday as usual
