The Chicken course is going very well, and despite the weather , all of my "students" turned up this evening at the memorial hall.We has a lively and rather animated evening of "chicken talk" which woke me up after last night's hospital shift
We finished the session at around 8.15, so while I waited for Pat the ever cheerful caretaker to come to lock the hall up, I had a peaceful amble around the deserted and silent village hall.
Although we have only lived in Trelawnyd for 5 years I have a great deal of affection for the village hall. (seen right at last year's Flower Show- I am standing by the table!).
Tonight I could imagine nearly a hundred years of history crammed into the very walls of the building, and although the Ghosts of the past could be imagined and recalled, I didn't feel at all ill at ease standing there alone in the dark.
Some buildings have a nice feel about them, I always think. Our cottage does to be sure, as does the Village Church, but the Memorial Hall has a certain lightness about it, which is hard to describe. I always feel comfortable and at home when I am there.
Off to bed...it's been a long day
And here I thought the town turned out for your chicken talk! LOL
ReplyDeleteIt may happen yet!
Ok, so all the people in the photo are not your students? Wow, that was really a big turn out for a chicken lesson.
ReplyDeleteHehe. From the above comments I see we're all a bunch of jokers. I was gonna say...
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about a building having 'that feeling'. I've also experienced that.
Hope you have a good nights rest! x-c
how many people are there in your village?
ReplyDeleteI agree, certain buildings have a 'feeling' about them. There have been some I will not walk into. And there are others that have a peaceful, warm, inviting feel. The history in your town is fascinating. Oh wait, you already know that! :)
ReplyDeletejim we have under 500 I think. I guess there is around 120 houses in the village
