I have been a widower for eight years now, and until seven months
ago, I was living on my own in a large five-bedroom house on a half acre
block.

The days would pass by slowly with general chores, gardening and
a few visits to the local clubs. Apart from my family, I would not see
many people.

Then a friend, who had recently moved into the village invited me to an
evening at the clubhouse, “Bring a Guest – Sausage and Mash Night”. I
thought it would save me cooking for a night, so why not.

I’d have to say that it was one of the best evenings I have had for a
long time! The noise, the laughter – Everyone seemed to be so happy. I
realised at that point that I was really missing out on what life could be!

With so many activities and outings on offer; the best part is that you
can do as much or as little as you like, and I haven’t looked back since.
Lifestyle Village, why not try it yourself?!
