Rainbows
Our little Ducklings are all enjoying painting rainbows and displaying them in their windows in support of the NHS and other key workers. It is lovely to see and I'm sure it brings a smile to passers by on their way to work.
Remember to give a round of applause or even better bang pots and pans…
