I had a teacher who would dangle naughty kids out the window by their feet, and one leathery old teacher who would get her favourite students to rub her feet while reading us a story. What were teachers doing back in your day they wouldn't be able to do now? Please, only things we can look back and laugh at. You may be contacted or your comment used in print.
It’s hard to put your finger on why Ryman care centres just feel different. Perhaps it’s our constant drive to improve through innovations such as our myRyman Care app and Delicious menu, or perhaps it’s the genuine warmth of the care we provide.

Our 'Experience the Care Difference’ guide paints a picture of the care, kindness and comfort that our residents experience every day. It offers a comprehensive guide to rest home, hospital and specialist dementia care, as well as our serviced apartment options. So, for the inside knowledge into what makes a Ryman care centre different, check out our guide.

I am still trying to find some Seville oranges for marmalade making. Our tree is still a couple of years from fruiting. Thank you for the suggestion of using eating oranges with added lemon - but in my long experience that doesn't yield the lovely sweet/ bitter taste that is so distinctive.

Where can I get a Christmas tree in the week before Christmas? (not an artificial tree) Is there anyone selling them as a fund raiser?
Commercial ones are already almost sold out.
