For those without internet access a quick call now and again keeps us all in touch. Could other language groups use this idea or something similar?

Practical Gardening

Canal Walking Group:
We should have been on our latest walk today. I have used the information I have about the walk to create a “ virtual walk”and will be sending it out to the group later. Your idea of reliving the Leeds Liverpool canal walk is excellent so I will send an old report of a leg of the walk each week and the group can comment in their memories of that walk.
Sunday Strollers
We have had to postpone a visit to Sefton Park so 15 questions about the Park have been devised. A question is sent out through whats app each day and the answer is posted the following day. A bonus is that through Facebook the group have been in contact with a lady who walks through the Park daily and takes photos. She has agreed that we use her photos. So a photo is added to question each day.
This quiz could be used by other groups as a bit of fun. Get in touch will me if you are interested
