Saturday 16th May: What a change in the weather. Today was sunny and 18 degrees in the shade in our back garden. All the bedding got washed and dried today, which was a surprise as we had rain forecast!
In the morning we drove to the outskirts of town to view a piece of land that has just gone on the market. The estate agent took us over the plot which is currently farmland but the Council has given initial permission for it to be built on. The plot is 6 acres in size.
After lunch we walked to the Regent Theatre to watch the film "Monsters v Aliens". The theatre has live shows and singing and dancing competitions as well as a pantomime at Christmas. In addition there are about 6 or 8 movie viewings each month, and local groups use them as fundraising opportunities where a proportion of the ticket price goes to the group or club. Today's movie was for funds for Kindy. The theatre was built in 1956, the year after the one I showed you the other day burned down. Recently it was bought up and is run by the same community group that is going to redevelop Quinns Arcade/Arcadia Theatre.
